Should not require version be supplied on cmd line
--------------------------------------------------

                 Key: ARCHETYPE-189
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/ARCHETYPE-189
             Project: Maven Archetype
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Generator
         Environment: Any
            Reporter: Clifton Craig


When invoking archetype:generate on the cmd line and specifying an archetype 
you must also include a version number or the plugin crashes. I think it should 
default to pulling down the latest deployed version of the given archetype. 
This has caused problems with the new GMaven mojo archetype as the maintainer 
rightfully doesn't want to include version numbers since it's constantly in 
flux. Confusion comes from people reading the tutorial/example and copying 
verbatim the cmd to the console and seeing failure messages and blaming the 
GMaven project..
