Re: [Maven 2] Can't use archetypeArtifactId=maven-archetype-site

- If you look at the plugin docs [1], you'll see that m2 defaults to
version "RELEASE" for all archetypes.

- Now maven complains that it can't find this version, so your best bet
is to go and have a look on the repository itself [2] to see what
versions are available there for this particular archetype. You will see
there that only 1.0-alpha-2 is available.

Solution : add -DarchetypeVersion=1.0-alpha-2 to your commandline.


That's a workaround. :)  The metadata that would allow the archetype plugin 
to figure out what version to use is missing from the repository.  I opened 
an issue to get it added:
