Very Interresting discution. In fact I'm having same problem. I think they are multiple resources file nature (like the dependancies) : 1/ Plugin resources (xdocs, checkstyle definition) : here they are every thing ie ./checkstyle.xml, $HOME/.maven/..., /xdocs (I like the m2 approach : xdocs under the src dir) 2/ Runtime resources : xdoclet velocity redefinition for example... 3/ Resource to include in the classpath : I use /src/resources/ojb, /src/resources/spring... to categorise them by nature. I like this way in M1 but I don't find how to do it in M2 (in fact I don't search) 4/ Resource to include in a specific dir : web resource like generate struts-config.xml, deployment files, .bat or .sh script to start an application... 5/ And of course tests resource that can be all the type before.
I really think there is a need of convention here. In my case I use the /src/main/resources for the 1/ (not allways like for checkstyle), 2/, 3/,4/... I don't like it : the resources nature is too differant but I am probably to strict with directory layout of a project ;-) I'd like to have the other feelling about this...
