I have seen references to the docck plugin floating around the list and
thought I would give it a try to see what it does. When I tried to
reference it on the command line, I got some strange output [1]. What
surprised me was that it resolved the version to a snapshot and tried to
get it from central. I checked my local repository and found
maven-metadata-central.xml [2] which explained why Maven resolved the
version. Is it an error for there to be metadata in central for a
snapshot plugin?

Here's what I did to make this work.
I put this in my settings.xml file:
...
<profiles>
<profile>
<id>apache</id>
<repositories>
<repository>
<id>snapshots</id>
<url>http://svn.apache.org/maven-snapshot-repository</url>
</repository>
</repositories>
<pluginRepositories>
<pluginRepository>
<id>snapshots</id>
<url>http://svn.apache.org/maven-snapshot-repository</url>
</pluginRepository>
</pluginRepositories>
</profile>
</profiles>
...
And invoke maven like this:
mvn -Papache docck:check
