Johan Walles commented on MRELEASE-184:
---------------------------------------

A third option would be to implement support for the unsupported SCM.

Trygve, I don't know if this issue is still relevant to you, but what SCM are / 
were you using that the release plugin didn't / doesn't support?

> The current functionality of the release plugin is very useful, but requires

> o When doing the release process, pause and wait for the user to manually 
> perform the steps that maven-scm normally would do, or
> o Break up the current monolitic goals into smaller parts so that the user 
> can call them manually and to SCM operations in the background. I think this 
> would be my approach, as there are several features of the release plugin 
> that are useful outside of a release procedure context, the pom re-writing is 
> the first that comes to mind.
