What does snapshot have to do with plugin:download? > There are other goals just as 'install'. Do they require the same > variables? Or from where do they get their information? This should be documented on a per goal basis. If they don't specify any needed variables, the assumption is they don't need them. > Could You please provide examples for all goals using parameters (there > are some in the maven web site, but why do You require users to search > for every little bit of information?)? And probably clarify for the > others, that they don't use any? You're kidding, right? With 80 odd plugins the number of goals would be in the hundreds, noone would have a complete list with parameter definitions just floating around. > There are also other plugins with little documentation.

The best you can do is point out where it's lacking, and if possible, send patches to fix them. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
