I'd like to include some additional informations in my Manifest files, and I want this information to be dynamically generated by maven1. It's not the typical classpath stuff, what I want is this:
- Include the CVS/SVN revision number

I am happy to donate the plugin I've written ...although I am
sure it could be done maybe a bit more elegant.

- Include the current date and time

Peace of cake to add

and that possibly in the same line as the normal version information.

Uh ...why?

As you see, this information has to be dynamically generated. My favourite solution would be to have a placeholder (like ${foo}) in a Manifest template to which I can refer to with the known "maven.jar.manifest" property. I searched wide and far, the only thing I found was a posting from someone saying he did something with maven2...

What I've done is java based and just has a light jelly
wrapper. Should be easy to come up with a m2 plugin but
m1 is there right now.

I'd be thankful if someone could just point me into the right direction.

Seems there is some need for this ...great :)

cheers
