This is a bit on the edge of Tomcat and Maven but I am hoping that there is a Maven solution or some little trick that makes the problem go away.

Our LMS portal consists of 60 separate modules that we build using Maven. About 45 are webapps that we need to deploy to make a new release. Another 10 or so are libraries that get deployed to the sharable lib folder n Tomcat.

When we build them with Maven, we get a nice xyz-1.9.1.war file but we can't (or do not know how to) deploy it with the version number intact and still have it run. Tomcat includes the version in the deployed webapp which screws up names of things.

The lib files don't care about names.

We have solved this with an Ant script that strips off the version number to give us xyz.war.

What is the "Best Practice" solution  to this.

We still end up with a bunch of war files that are not deployed to Nexus since Maven deploys the xyz-1.9.1.war file.
