I think he was saying that its not just a matter of what *can* be done, it's a matter of things "just working". The constellation of maven plugins should be set up so that you *normally* don't have customize a descriptor over here to make something work over there. In other words, I think he is saying that there should be a sensible and consistent set of default values that help all the plugins work together well in "most" cases. Maven is all about having "best practices" implemented by default reducing the amount of arbitrary trivial decisions you have to make. Maybe having the dependency plugin default to "lib" might be a good example. But this should be decided in coordination with the other plugins that might make use of this. ----------------------------------------- Attention: Any views expressed in this message are those of the individual sender, except where the message states otherwise and the sender is authorized to state them to be the views of any such entity.
