Brett,

So are you saying that if the jars are named correctly (i.e. xxx-javadoc and
xxx-src) that Maven2 will automatically pull them to the local repository?
So if my project has a dep on a 3rd party jar, and they've included the src
and api jars, then Maven2 will pull them to my local repo as well? Is there
a setting for this? (Sorry, I know I keep saying the same thing, I'm just
trying to make sure you knew what I meant, I'm floored that this is in!)

If so, then this is fantastic!! This was part of the behaviour we were
achieving in our custom plugin....

The next piece of the puzzle is for the ide plugins to also recognize the
existance of the local jars and add them to the tool's config file....

thx!

-S
