Hervé Boutemy commented on MNG-6682:
------------------------------------
wildcards? didn't think about it: perhaps for a future Maven release
IMHO, we need to start simple by learning back how to create new dependency
types, then make everybody know that type is not a packaging, nor simply
extension like old doc suggested...
> create "source-release" dependency type
