Robert,
Try adding this to your POM:
<build>
[...]
<plugins>
[...]
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-scm-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.0</version>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.ph.buildtools.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>scm-plugin</artifactId>
<version>7.4.0.0</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
</plugin>
[...]
</plugins>
[...]
</build>
Also, you'll want to change your "packaging" to be "jar" instead of
"maven-plugin". You are not actually creating a new plugin, you are
creating a new provider jar for the existing scm plugin to use. A
related suggestion would be to change your artifact id to something like
"scm-provider-aci-custom".
I have created a custom provider for Serena PVCS/Changeman (my company's
SCM tool) and the "discovery" works just fine as long as you add the
dependency config for the scm plugin as shown above. You'll also have
to similarly configure other plugins that rely on your provider
(maven-release-plugin, maven-changelog-plugin, etc.) if you use them.
I didn't add "DefaultScmManager.setScmProvider( String providerType,
ScmProvider provider )" anywhere in the code.

All it did was change the error to:
[INFO] [scm:validate]
[ERROR] Validation of scm url connection (connectionUrl) failed :
[ERROR] No such provider installed 'custom'.
Perhaps we'd best wait for Emmanual to look at the original request.
Until then, I've trimmed the rest and proceeded onward. Once this works
I should be able to get a server connection with the code I've added
this morning.
Thanks for the suggestions, though.
