So, just to keep this thread up-to-date, according to the other email I just read (RE: How to deselect classes while creating jar?" from Simon Kitching), you can't exactly do what I outlined below because the jar plugin does not support includes/excludes yet. Please vote for http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MJAR-30. Until then, I guess you will have to create one "big" jar with everything and all of your custom jars will be secondary artifacts.
