Yes, having the timestamp to 0 is something I wanted generally to avoid. But this has opened another question: use what value? Can this be automated?
I knew that war files could be a specific use case. Perhaps this plugin requires a specific way of handling reproducibility, even more than the standard in the proposal "define a timestamp in pom.xml"? Do you want that I create a Reproducible branch in mave-war-plugin like I did for Jar, Source and Assembly, so we can test?
