I'm developing a tool that among other things, allows for the user to pick a CVS version and build it with maven (this is part of the process anyways). While I have not got as far as you seem to be yet, I do not know of any automated way to do this.
Could you elaborate on how you use the maven release plugin? Does it generate a pom file by itself? I have successfully mavenized the file system, so that dependencies reside inside of the resources folder and the code is in its right place, however I haven't yet figured out how to go about generating a pom file to feed maven with all the correct dependencies in it, keeping in mind inter-dependence and whatnot (such that things aren't listed multiple times..)
