I think you have the right idea. But I've never been able to get a shared plugin directory working. I allow them to be unpacked in the default dir ~/.maven/plugins.

I have been able to set up my local repository in the way that you're suggesting though.

Try doing chgrp and chmod with the -v (verbose) option to make sure that all files are being affected.

I have set the plugins directory with the following settings:

chgrp -R users plugins
chmod -R g+w plugins

I still can't let users update and add plugins at this location. Also, how many
others are using Maven with a real operating system (Windows doesn't count)?
The issues are completely with permissions.
