elharo opened a new issue, #67:
URL: https://github.com/apache/maven-mapping/issues/67

   ## Description
   
   In `MappingUtils.java:90`, the `RegexBasedInterpolator` is constructed with:
   
   ```java
   new RegexBasedInterpolator("\\@\\{(", ")?([^}]+)\\}@");
   ```
   
   The prefix contains an opening `(` and the suffix starts with `)?`, forming 
an empty optional capture group `()?` that spans across the interpolator's 
internal key capture pattern. This group is never used for anything and is 
functionally dead regex.
   
   The same result could be achieved with the simpler:
   
   ```java
   new RegexBasedInterpolator("\\@\\{", "\\}@");
   ```
   
   ## Impact
   
   No functional impact, but the unnecessary complexity obscures the intent and 
may confuse future contributors.
   
   ## Relevant code
   
   `src/main/java/org/apache/maven/shared/mapping/MappingUtils.java:90`
