nice catch. I looked at that plugin descriptor, but missed the different
version...I was looking more for bad xml.

see the plugin.xml file in META-INF/maven/plugin.xml. Here is the sample
pom to illustrate the issue.
[...]
<build>
<plugins>

As per MNG-3284, Maven 2.1 and 3.x are now considering the version when
loading plugins. This in turn makes Maven less forgiving about bad
plugin descriptors like the one included in the plugin JAR [1] you
mentioned:
<plugin>
<description></description>
<groupId>com.caucho</groupId>
<artifactId>resin-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
...
</plugin>
Note the version "3.1-SNAPSHOT". You declared to use
resin-maven-plugin:3.1.6 but the plugin descriptor is actually for
resin-maven-plugin:3.1-SNAPSHOT. This mismatch causes the error.
You should contact the maintainer of the plugin and request a new
release with proper metadata.
