Well, you got me. Given that so many people are heavily into Maven I have to admit ignorance in there. I think Anita had made a comment that she was reusing existing Geronimo code and that you were using something from Plexus.

Not everyone has that same mighty mass of knowledge you take for granted :) Thanks for the clarification.

Also, it sounds like some of the changes are preferences based on style. It would be a fair debate as to one should use Plexus or Geronimo infrastructure for the file delete activity.

Are you kidding me? Maven2 is built upon Plexus... Maven2 is a Plexus application. Mojo's the Maven2 plugin system are also Plexus components. All of the major plugins are using the support framework that Plaxus provides to handle these types of tasks.

There is absolutely no reason why we need to have duplicate code to delete files in our mojos.

This is not style, this is common sense and appropriate reuse of the Maven2 platform for our builds.
