Nice catch!!
I have attached a new patch. I had to revert back to target/classes.
Below is an explanation of why it has to be reverted back to
target/classes. I will explain the various sections of the pom.xml in
openejb-standalone module (see the comments before each plugin in the
build element)
<!-- This plugin basically picks up the files from src/main/resources
and copies them to target/classes. In the process it uses a directory
target/archive-tmp where it first puts the "filtered" versions of the
files from src/main/resources. Then it copies those "filtered"
versions to target/classes> -->
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-resources-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.2</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>filter-resources</id>
<phase>package</phase>
<goals>
<goal>resources</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
<!-- This plugin creates the assembly. This will use the descriptor in
src/main/assembly/bin.xml -->
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.1</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>assembly-bin-distributions</id>
<phase>package</phase>
<goals>
<goal>attached</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
<configuration>
<descriptors>
<descriptor>src/main/assembly/bin.xml</descriptor>
<!-- Creates some bizarre file -->
<!-- descriptor>src/main/assembly/test.xml</descriptor -->
</descriptors>
<archive>
<manifest>
<mainClass>org.apache.openejb.test.Main</mainClass>
</manifest>
</archive>
<finalName>openejb-${pom.version}</finalName>
</configuration>
</plugin>
<!-- This is the last plugin to execute the run goal in the package
phase. This just removes the target/archive-tmp and target/classes
directories which were required temporarily by maven-resources-plugin
and maven-assembly-plugin above -->
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-antrun-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.1</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>cleanup-target</id>
<phase>package</phase>
<configuration>
<tasks>
<delete dir='${basedir}/target/classes' />
<delete dir='${basedir}/target/archive-tmp' />
</tasks>
</configuration>
<goals>
<goal>run</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
Now here is the explanation for specifying target/classes in
src/main/assembly/bin.xml. Since the resources plugin is executed
first, it copies the "filtered" files to target/classes. We just need
to make sure that we pick up the filtered versions of the files
instead of the "unfiltered" versions in src/main/resources . Hence we
do something like below (in bin.xml):
<fileSet>
<directory>target/classes</directory>
<includes>
<include>README*</include>
</includes>
<outputDirectory>beans/</outputDirectory>
</fileSet>
So in the above we are basically saying that "Copy the README.xxx file
from the target/classes directory and paste it in the beans directory
of the zip or tar.gz file". This README.xxx is the filtered version of
the file.

Well it worked by making the assembly plugin to look for files into the
src/main/resources dir, I will commit that, but I will make the JIRA open
and assigned to you for further comments, and when done we can close it.
Thanks a lot Karan :-).
