Hardy Ferentschik commented on ARCHETYPE-302:
---------------------------------------------

Maybe I should re-phrase a little. I think that it would be great if the 
project/module which should become the archetype could exist in its "extracted" 
form, be it a webapp, spring-, hibernate- or whatever-app. This makes it easy 
to evolve the artifact. At install/deploy time I everything to get packaged 
into a archetype. The one thing I would like to change/modify is the pom.

> Have a custom packaging type for achetypes
