Yeah, this would have been my choice, but the developers want a date
timestamp:-)

In the end, my workaround was to modify the maven-buildnumber-plugin.
Here's the code snippet
if ( project != null )
{
//Check if buildNumber has been set
//If not, set it to t buildNumber
String buildnum = System.getProperty("buildNumber");
if (buildnum == null)
{
System.setProperty("buildNumber", revision);
}
revision = System.getProperty("buildNumber");
project.getProperties().put( "buildNumber", revision );
String buildnumber = (String)
project.getProperties().get("buildNumber");
getLog().info( "Build Number: " + buildnumber );
}
