Hi Jeff, thank you very much for this information and your article! I wasn't aware of this plugin.
I just changed my build process for Lilith accordingly. See http://github.com/huxi/lilith/commit/c2689ee57b263c6a2cb6241547a991703354bc6f I had to jump through some loops, though, since I have gpg2 instead of gpg: The following two properties had to be added to my pom: <gpg.useagent>true</gpg.useagent> <gpg.keyname>740A1840</gpg.keyname> The first one makes sure that gpg isn't complaining about an invalid option (--no-use-agent was removed in gpg2) and doesn't ask for a passphrase anymore. This was quite tricky since the documentation of maven-gpg-plugin says that it's called useAgent, which it isn't! The second one selects the correct key used for the signature - which is a good idea if you have more than one. I wanted to comment on your article but, unfortunately, comments are disabled.
