using svn blame, I started to try to figure out why these strange things are 
here.

the *.formatted was easy to find:
http://svn.apache.org/r960848
corresponding to
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MASSEMBLY-462
I read quickly this Jira issue, I didn't really catch what created the 
.formatted file that this exclude was "workarounding"
But there is an IT associated: I don't know if it really checks perfectly 
about that file, but should. And if the IT works without this workaround, we 
can remove the now unused workaround
Still need some investigation


For *.filtered, it is more tricky since the code was changed in a little 
refactoring in http://svn.apache.org/r628941 and svn blame does not work for 
code at that version
Does anybody know how to find the commit that added this exclusion?


BTW, removing such code without knowing why it was there is not something I'm 
ok with: can you revert please and continue together investigations?

Thanks

Hervé
