All, Today I googled for "maven blank webapp archetype" and the top hit is an example published using 1.0-alpha-7 of the Archetype plugin. Unfortunately, I didn't catch that the page was for a plugin version so old. I wasted a good 15 minutes (at least).
It would be really useful to include an SSI banner for pages in the /plugins-archives folder [1] so that users know they are looking at stale information. Apache does something similar with Attic projects [2] already. WDYT? I think it's a disservice not to call out old documentation.
