If the intention for this plugin is to let run standalone on a CI-Server, then that's good enough for me. The plugin doesn't use org.apache.maven.plugins as groupId, so it'll be a bit harder to be found by the general user, which is good.

I can image that this tool could be interesting for any large project with staging. So some parts need to be more generic.
With less hardcoded values it is also easier to make proper tests.

Well, I'm late Hervé answered before me.

Of course you can improve the "plugin" which we should maybe rename to avoid
confusion with end user maven plugin.

A todo.md file is available to add RFE that needs a couple of days (my
definition :p) . Idea was to not overwhelm Hervé (or any other maven dev).

Thanks you for the IT settings.

PS:
FYI the JDK version choice
   (on a feature point ) try with resource feature + new javadoc style.
  As a lecturer in HCI field, when you ask student to get java (oracle
version) they found jdk 7, jdk 6 is shown as end of life (with security
warning everywhere).
   Side effect is that, you play with the new features.  (student later
learn backward compatibility)

this is not a plugin for end users, only for internal Maven team: and once it is scheduled daily on our Jenkins server, i don't expect us to run it on
our personal machines

so I don't think JDK7 nor Maven version requirements are a problem.

ITs would be nice, yes, to be sure things are detected even when we fix
errors actually reported

Hi,

I noticed there are no IT's. It shouldn't be too hard to write that. I
can make a setup for that in order to be able to execute some ITs

Although most of us want to use the latest and greatest, I have my
doubts about using JDK7 and M3.0.4 for compilation. Since our advice
is to compile with lowest required versions, I think we should aim for
JDK5 and M3.0, unless there's a very, very good reason not to.

I see some other improvements, put I'll pick these up myself. Should
be easy to verify once I've got the ITs running.
