No, Gump has enough complex code for loading metadata, I'd really rather
rely upon the gump goal in maven & not introduce yet another XML element
called "<project" (of a different flavour.)

Also, we need to make more progress on seeing <maven builds (so I appreciate
you brining this up) before we invest more around the edges.

Actually, no idea. :(

Reading:

http://maven.apache.org/reference/project-descriptor.html#dependencies
http://maven.apache.org/reference/project-descriptor.html#dependency

I suspect that groupId, artifactId,jar,type all play a role (and I see that
'id' is deprecated.) From these I can see that the 'gump' maven goal can
generate dependencies (groupId = Gump project) and ids.

Hopefully POM project descriptors specify all groupIds and artifactIds,
otherwise Gump can't use set the classpath overrides.

Correct.

A Mavenite's insights would certainly help.

I think it does, but as a side effect. I think we (Apache/others) just come
to a consensus on group and artefact ids. I suspect we are far closer to
condenses than we realize, and we should just (all) work towards a common
set.
