Thanks for your responses. Even if your profile solution should work, I guess the maintenance effort would be enormous (The project I should implement my release tool for has about 80 independent Artifacts, so I would end up with 80+ profiles).
Well I guess I'll simply start by taking the current release Plugin as a basis and simply whip up a patched one, as I have to admit I'm completely fed-up with all the problems I am having with the ones available. I know that "You don't do sub-releases in Maven" but in my case I am working my ass off to satisfy my customer and I simply want this finished. So if the default stuff doesn't do it, I'll make it do it ... perhaps I should call it the "pandoras-box-release-plugin" or something like that ;-) So I'm finally giving up using standard stuff ... from now I'll go the custom path. Hopefully that will lead me out of this release jungle soon ;-) Chris -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Lyons, Roy [mailto:roy.ly...@cmegroup.com] Gesendet: Mittwoch, 13.

They put the [modules] section in profiles... and set a profile to determine which set of modules are included. In general the advice you will get is to never have a profile make a difference in the binaries being built... but it is kind of handy if its an internal project that is well documented.
