[changes-maven-plugin] Using a Custom Announcement Template Bug!?

[Fred Hauschel]

Hey All,
1. The only release I found is 2.0-beta-1 in jira there are 2.0-beta-2,
2.0-beta-3 and 2.0 What are the latest release? And where can I find it?

2. [MultiModule project!] With 2.0-beta-1 I've problems with "Using a Custom
Announcement Template". If I follow the how-to
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-changes-plugin/examples/using-a-custom-announcement-template.htmlin
my submodule
The resourceloader could'not find the xxx.vm template. The
changes-maven-plugin is configured in parentPom PlugInManagement (see
bottom).
In the submodule under build.plugins I've overwrite the configuration like
this:

    <build>
        <plugins>
            <plugin>
                <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
                <artifactId>changes-maven-plugin</artifactId>
                <configuration>
                    <template>announcement.vm</template>
                    <templateDirectory>announcements</templateDirectory>
                    <toAddresses>
                        <toAddress
implementation="java.lang.String">removed</toAddress>
                    </toAddresses>
                </configuration>
            </plugin>
...

If the template is located in the submodule
/src/main/resources/announcements/announcement.vm The resourceLoader cannot
find the template. If I locate the template with the same path in the parent
project it works. Is this a feature or a bugt?

Thanks Fredy

ParentPom config:

        </pluginManagement>
            </plugins>
