Frederick N. Brier commented on MDEP-239:
-----------------------------------------
The maven-dependency-plugin is at version 2.8. What version is this fix
applied? Was it just closed and not fixed? Even though there were only a
couple of votes for this issue, it seems to be a needed feature. Someone over
at jetspeed-2 created a plugin to do just this, although its usage
documentation is clearly written. There is at least 1-2 other plugins written
by individuals. Many people on the web suggest doing this with an Ant task.
It does not seem particularly difficult as zip/jar functionality is built into
the standard Java libraries.
