Please respond to

Ah, I misunderstood you. I thought you already had the folder but the
war plugin was skipping the empty dirs. Glad you got it working.

I got it working using the antrun plugin as follows (not sure if the
best way, but it was the only way it worked):
<plugins>
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-antrun-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>compile</phase>
<configuration>
<tasks>
<mkdir
dir="target/fxalladmin/WEB-INF/bigbrother"/>
</tasks>
</configuration>
<goals>
<goal>run</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
</plugins>
Alternate solutions are welcome...
