Hi Nicolas,

Thanks for replying. Yes, I did take a look at your Mojo 
(http://mojo.codehaus.org/javascript-maven-tools/javascript-report-maven-plugin/jslint-mojo.html).
 

Your Mojo being bound to the "site" phase (by default) fits into the "intended 
for project reporting" comment that I made. While I think there could be a 
place for JSLint site reporting, I personally see JSLint reporting being most 
useful at the point of code being written e.g. when a source file is saved. 
Hence the impetus for my plugin writing to the console and being efficient 
about being invoked frequently.

I'd love to. I'm wondering if your project:

http://mojo.codehaus.org/javascript-maven-tools/index.html

...could benefit from becoming a great place to launch into JS development with 
Maven and have it introduce various JS Maven projects e.g. other Mojo's and not 
even just Codehaus ones. I also see a place where we need to come up with some 
new lifecycles (which I see you've approached) and perhaps your project is the 
place for that. Another thought is that some JS Maven archetypes could also 
possibly live under your project.

My main thought though is that we should move away from having a one-size-fits 
all Mojo for JS tooling. As stated in other threads, we don't have 
all-encompassing Mojo's for Java, and so I don't think that we should have them 
for JS.

Your thoughts?

Kind regards,
Christopher
