Thanks Wayne.
So there is a bug in the plugin/mojo. It needs an additional parameter
and logic. So setting a profile is probably the best thing to do for
now.
e.g.
<profile>
<id>regenerate-pom</id>
<properties>
<java.program>
com.acme.cartoons.BugsBunnyProgram
</java.program>
</properties>
</profile>
<profile>
<id>pilgripe</id>
<properties>
<samba.internal.repository.dir>
U:\internal\maven-repository
</samba.internal.repository.dir>
</properties>
<activation>
<property>
<name>user.name</name>
<value>pilgripe</value>
</property>
</activation>
</profile>
