OK, this is related to animal-sniffer. I have a new packaging type packagingsignature/packaging This is designed to capture the signatures of an API, e.g. Java SE 1.4, Java SE 1.5, etc. But of course, it can do so much more, the way I have it set up you can do something like so: project groupIdorg.apache.maven/groupId artifactIdmaven-plugin-rt-signature/artifactId version2.0/version packagingsignature/packaging dependencies dependency groupIdorg.codehaus.mojo.animal_sniffer.signatures/groupId artifactIdjavase/artifactId version1.4.0-1/version typesignature/type /dependency dependency groupIdorg.apache.maven/groupId artifactIdmaven-plugin-api/artifactId version2.0/version /dependency dependency groupIdorg.apache.maven/groupId artifactIdmaven-core/artifactId version2.0/version /dependency dependency groupIdorg.apache.maven/groupId artifactIdmaven-project/artifactId version2.0/version /dependency dependency !-- the rest of the maven 2.0 API -- /dependency /dependencies build plugins plugin groupIdorg.codehaus.mojo/groupId artifactIdanimal-sniffer-maven-plugin/artifactd version.../version extensionstrue/extensions /plugin /plugins /build /project and this will produce a set of signatures that is a combination of all the dependency jar files and the java SE 1.4 signatures.

Re: When is a dependency a dependency?
Packaging was originally meant to model a archive of some sort. The POM packaging is stretching it because lifecycles are mapped to packaging and we needed something different. I think this here too might also be stretching it. I don't think an archive with API signatures is a packaging. It's a secondary artifact like javadoc or source jars.
