The documentation should reference <descriptorRefs/> configuration, not <descriptors/>. I've been watching the JIRAs, but haven' had time to mount a new offensive to get another release out.

The short story is there was a lot of potential for bad things to happen in the complex code used to load descriptors. Paired with the fact that <descriptors/> is meant to load descriptors from the project source tree somewhere, it made sense to go back to loading <descriptors/> only in this way, and use <descriptorRefs/> for the rest.

Unfortunately, I didn't see that the shared-descriptor example uses <descriptors/>. I'll try to roll a site update quickly to take care of the incorrect documentation.

Hi

I created an issue in JIRA [1] for what I think is a regression in
version 2.2 of the Assembly Plugin. When digging deeper in JIRA I found
more related, but not identical, issues [2].

What I would like to know is whether the change was a deliberate or not.
If it was deliberate then we need to update the docs as per
MASSEMBLY-516 [3].
