Err, let's keep using examples to avoid miscommunication :p If I understand you correctly, you mean this:
root: ... images: ........ image-a ........ image-b ... assemblies: ........ assembly-a ........ assembly-b When running from root, you can use: > mvn <goal> -pl !root,!images,!assemblies -N This will build image-a, image-b, assembly-a, assembly-b. It skips all three aggregators. By the way, -pl !xxx,yyy is still perfectly possible.
