The Apache Maven team is pleased to announce the release of the Maven 
Dependency Plugin, version 2.8

The dependency plugin provides the capability to manipulate artifacts. It can 
copy and/or unpack artifacts from local or remote repositories to a specified 
location.

<plugin>
  <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
  <artifactId>maven-dependency-plugin</artifactId>
  <version>2.8</version>
</plugin>
