Why would you actually need other scopes? Don't think of scope, think of use-cases:

1.  Need for both compile and in the deployed system
2.  Need only for compile.
3.  Need only in the deployed system
4.  Provided locally for compile
5.  Need only during testing

What other scenarios would your other language have need for? These are the scenarios that are handled by the maven dependency scopes.

Nope, the scopes are coded into the core and most of the plugins since
it's a core concept.

And there is any where to say: "Hey maven, I wanna change your scopes,
I wanna this scopes"?

"System" scope doesn't exist in Java either.  It's not a Java thing,
but a Maven thing, and it just means that the dependency is provided
at compile time by a local direct path, and that the ultimate runtime
will provide the dependency.

Hi guys,

I'm developing a maven compiler mojo to another language (not Java,
but I prefer don't reveal, at least not now).

That language have more scopes (total 6).  One (COMPILE) is Java
like.
But the others have different naming:
RUNTIME on Java there is called EXTERNAL
PROVIDED on Java looks like to RUNTIME on this language
SYSTEM  doesn't exist

I wanna the same Java Scopes, but I wanna to use another name
convention.

How can I create my custom scope and insert they into the maven
dependency mechanism? I need to do that because I have 2 types of
transitive dependencies and 3 non transitive.

Any one can help me?
