I wouldn't mind if we said it's been replaced by the Cargo m1 plugin and I'm active there so the Cargo project can support any additional feature requests. > [] jetty The Cargo m1 plugin is working and is a full superset I believe, so I wouldn't mind if we said that it's been replaced by the cargo m1 plugin. I'm +1 to move those plugin sources to the sandbox. However I'm not sure about removing the last released version of them from the distribution. Maybe we simply need to provide a batch file with "maven plugin:download" entries for all the plugins we're demoting and put that file in the download area for people who still want to use them?
