[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2198?page=comments#action_67992 ] 

Johann Reyes commented on MNG-2198:
-----------------------------------

This is more for IDEs like Idea or eclipse to be able to download 
sources/javadocs for dependencies, right now these two projects uses some hacks 
to download the dependencies, since there is no method they can invoke to 
download sources or javadocs. Maybe not make it mandatory, but add a new method 
so these other dependencies (sources/javadocs) can be resolved in a standard 
way along with dependecy itself.

> Add <javadoc/> and <source/> to plugin metadata
