First, I want to thank everyone who made 2.2 a reality. It's let me cleanup my build quite a bit.
Having said that, it seems that you can't please everybody all of the time, especially with a generic tool like the maven-jar-plugin <g>. I have a business requirement (read: management, not programmatic, decision) to produce a few empty jars in my build. I had hoped the <forceCreation> configuration option would do the trick, but it doesn't. Since the jars are empty I do not need any 2.2 specific functionality, so I can force 2.1 using <plugin><version> as a workaround. Is there a cleaner way?
