I think it is more important to put a proper structure in that can be used going forward with Maven 3 that works better than the current site plugin than to maintain backwards compatibility form a pom perspective.
As I understand it maven 3 will have on par support for the site plugin in terms of features, but rely on a better way of configuring it in the pom. Since there are enough hooks in maven to make sure the right maven version is used I think this is a totally reasonable approach. It will be good to be rid of the reporting section in the pom. I can wait for maven 3 with working reporting - exciting. But until then sonar it pretty damn awesome to play with too ;-) manfred > If it had been that way from the start, I suppose I'd agree.
