1) It's possible to exec 'mvn archetype:generate' in a directory that does
not have a pom.xml in it (I just did this).  In this case, the
pluginManagement, etc. is irrelevant (why should you need a POM to create a
new project based on a template?)

2) There are many maven-metadata*.xml files in
.m2\repo2\org\apache\maven\plugins\maven-archetype-plugin directory.  Which
one does Maven use?
