Wojtek commented on MASSEMBLY-903:
----------------------------------
Maybe a bit (in our case it's already bloated with various asciidoc
configuration, which I trimmed 75% due to finally migrating to parent pom). I
was considering above but couldn't make it work with parent pom (type=pom) –
most likely because it's type and doesn't contain actual descriptor.
Why put that in pom? Because the shared descriptor would be short (very short 2
directories so in total about 10-15 lines) and it's more convenient to maintain
single project with master/parent project instead of doing that and in addition
maintain additional project just to define descriptor.
> Allow defining descriptors within pom.xml

> It would be very handy it it were possible to define actual assembly
> description *within* pom.xml file, this would allow defining descriptors in
> the parent pom.xml and inherit it across the project with ease. To that end,
> facilitating `merge` inheritance would be a huge bonus.
