Hi @markobean. Nifty idea to break things out in this way. I like the idea of building only needed parts of the project for a given task, and I've also looked at this issue some. Have you thought about leveraging built-in Maven functionality to achieve a similar effect? The [-pl] and [-am] command-line switches provide the ability to build a given module, as well as any declared module dependencies. `mvn clean install -pl :nifi-assembly -am` - [builds 432 modules; excludes anything not declared as a "nifi-assembly" dependency] `mvn clean install -pl :minifi-c2-assembly -am` - [builds 75 modules...] `mvn clean install -pl :nifi-registry-assembly -am` - [builds 43 modules...] `mvn clean install -pl :nifi-stateless-assembly -am` - [builds 55 modules...] `mvn clean install -pl :nifi-registry-toolkit-assembly -pl :nifi-toolkit-assembly -pl :minifi-toolkit-assembly -am` - [builds 90 modules...] There appears to be some module dependency duplication with the toolkits, it might make sense to nest each of these under the appropriate "*-assembly", or new meta-modules could be introduced to build everything associated with minifi, for example (meta-modules might also be a good home for the docker modules). Rather than changing the root POM, maybe this could be expressed by adding some documentation, perhaps a section in README.MD.
