I know, and I already do that... but you still need to ask people to add your new 
repository location (http://maven-validator.sourceforge.net/) while the upload request 
is waiting. And I don't really like to create an unofficial maven repository on the 
sourceforge web servers (I don't even know if sf policies allow this...)

> Again if we're speaking of your stuff, namely the carbon items, I'm
peronally not going to unpack the whole lot and rename the jars. If you
provided a tarball that laid out the whole structure for carbon then it
might go quicker.

Ok, if a tar can help I can submit it, just ask for it instead of ignoring the 
request! (btw, there is already a single tar with all the jars, and all of them go to 
the same repository directory... this work only consists in adding the "-2.1" prefix).
Anyway I was not speaking only about my requests, there are lots of people complaining 
about this and the process really needs to be simplified to become useful.

Maven2?

> It is also easy to integrate any maven2 plugins into Jelly because the
plugins are POJOs. This is exactly what I intend to do with the xdoc
plugin.

I know, I know... but why creating this strong separation between maven1 and maven2 
plugins, so?
Ok, maven 2 plugins will use a container framework, but starting fixing bugs in actual 
plugins while creating some simple java classes which can be used by jelly could make 
the transition smoother... and the plugin lifecycle is independent from maven one, so 
you don't ever need to wait for a 1.0 release.
Starting maven 2 with a brand new set of plugins (with a brand new set of bugs) is 
scaring... this really makes me want to stay with maven 1 forever...
