An alternative is an overlay. This is perhaps overkill for just some classes.
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<overlays>
<overlay>
<groupId>com.basistech.jug</groupId>
<artifactId>gate-home</artifactId>
<classifier>gate-home</classifier>
<type>zip</type>
<targetPath>WEB-INF</targetPath>
</overlay>
</overlays>
</configuration>
</plugin>
