Yes.

Considering that Maven will actually only use the built-in ones at runtime for plugins it is actually quite silly to download all the other ones for plugins.

Though this is really indicative of a wider problem where we don't do much in the way of intelligent resolution of versions. Hopefully this is something any work on the artifact code works to address.

Maybe this won't strike you as strange but it did me. I ran a mvn install on a project using 2.0.9. In the course of that maven- project-2.0, maven-project-2.0.6, maven-2.0.7, and maven- project-2.0.9 were downloaded, installed into the local repo and then used in the build. As you would expect this is due to the use of the various plugins used during the build. Knowing what I know about maven I understand why this us. But the question remains, doesn't this just seem wrong? Shouldn't maven 2.0.9 only use maven 2.0.9 jars?
