Hi,

I noticed that due to [1], the groupId for
maven-plugin-testing-harness is no more org.apache.maven.shared.
Moreover, we will do a jump from 1.1 to 2.4 [2].
Similar problems occur for maven-plugin-tools-* and only
maven-plugin-plugin is not affected by this version pb.

I propose to create a new groupId: org.apache.maven.plugint-tools.

Thoughts?

I'm not a big fan of changing groupIds. It might be that I got burned, trying to pull that off at Apache Commons.

We should ask ourselves this: What would we gain from changing groupIds?

An obvious down-side is the confusion it creates for the people using the artifacts. In this case that's each and every plugin developer out there.

Since a release has not been made yet, can't we just go back? So that each artifact uses the groupIds that they had before the plugin-tools merger.
