Howard, You have an interesting way of motivation and over generalization: "Once again, Maven is screwed up beyond belief and the developer community response is pitifully absent" "http://twitter.com/hlship";
First of all, one plugin does not represent the entire Maven project. Second, the assumption that we are all here to jump at your beck and call is offensive. Perhaps your approach is what earns you "pitifully absent" response. Third, it's open source and patches are welcome. -----Original Message----- From: Howard Lewis Ship [mailto:hls...@gmail.com] Sent: Friday, April 03, 2009 8:31 PM To: Maven Users List Subject: Re: Maven Archetype Plugin is Hosed --- and nobody cares Yes, that's the bug I added and mentioned in my posting to this mailing list.
