The "jar" task is about building java jarfiles. Jarfiles are what you pass to a JVM to run, or put on a classpath. I think what you are looking for is the maven-assembly-plugin, which allows you to build tarfiles, zipfiles, etc that are intended to be unpacked. Documentation about that plugin is available on the maven site.
