Hello Maven users,
I'm in the process of mavenizing an ant build (alright !) but there is a
step, signing, that seems not that obvious to achieve.
I can use the maven jar signer and sign my jars ok , with :

<plugin>
        <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
        <artifactId>maven-jarsigner-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>1.2</version>
        <executions>
          <execution>
                <id>sign</id>
                <goals>
                  <goal>sign</goal>
                </goals>
          </execution>
          <execution>
                <id>verify</id>
                <goals>
                        <goal>verify</goal>
                </goals>
        </execution>
        </executions>
        <configuration>
                  <keystore>${keystore.location}</keystore>
                  <storepass>${keystore.store.password}</storepass>
                  <keypass>${keystore.key.password}</keypass>
                  <alias>${keystore.alias}</alias>
        </configuration>
</plugin>

And setting the variables in my settings.xml.
But, I want more; in fact, the people who used to do the signing with
ant, also timestamped their jars while doing so.
Why ? because imagine your authority expires in 2012, and you signed
your jar in 2011, you do not want your users to have a security warning
when they install and use this jar in 2012+ (since when you signed it
you had the authority to do so back then in 2011; at least this is what
I understood from this process :-P )
So, with ant, they did that :

<signjar alias="${sign.alias}" keystore="${sign.keystore}"
        storepass="${sign.storepass}"
        preservelastmodified="true"
        tsaurl="${tsa.url}">
        <path>
                <fileset dir="${buildDirectory}/buildRepo/plugins">
                        <include name="**/com.company*.jar" />
                </fileset>
        </path>
</signjar>

Did you notice that "tsaurl=url" ?
According to the doc, http://ant.apache.org/manual/Tasks/signjar.html
"URL for a timestamp authority for timestamped JAR files in Java1.5+"
Thing is, in maven jar signer, there is not such option :
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-jarsigner-plugin/sign-mojo.html 
Is there a maven plugin to accomplish this ?
If not, should I create a feature request on maven jar signer Jira ?
Or, but I would feel so sorry, should I use the maven ant runner plugin
to do this :-(

Thank you,
Best regards,
