I didn't think this was at all standardised across commons. Some used
clirr, some used jdiff, most used nothing. There is a jdiff plugin - you
are right in that clirr was external to Maven before and it is on the
long todo list.

Yes, that's what I mean.

Maven 2 can do the entirety of src/test as a separate JAR with some
limitations. While I think the multiproject structure would be a better
idea, you would have to do some customisation to do the subset you have
at the moment.

I was actually referring to the assemblies rather than the distributable
jars, though :)
