The implementation is mostly symmetrical with artifact downloading routines in maven core When you have artifact of type "example" ( <type>example<type> ) it has to have extension .example and reside in the folder "examples". Only maven plugins and ejb jars are handled in a special way. This is something we want to change in close future and make it to certain degree customisable.
