Hi,

We have some documentation which is sufficiently code-like (html built 
with xslt), that it needs to be built and deployed to a web server via a 
maven module.

I have got it working via FTP using the antrun plugin.  No problems 
there....

The build of the documentation happens in the install phase (this is the 
most logical, and most developers will type "mvn install" without even 
using their brain).

I have bound the deployment of the documentation to the deploy phase (and 
used the pom packaging for my module).  This works, but it gives me a 
problem.... 
... when I call deploy, it also deploys the pom to the remote repository - 
which doesn't make any sense.  This is done by developers, and they 
shouldn't in general touch the remote repository.  But this _is_ a 
deployment, so I feel it is the correct phase to use.

How can I stop maven from deploying the pom.  Can't I disable the goal 
somehow?  Do I really need to create a custom lifecycle? (this seems like 
too much of a hack)

thanks in advance,

Michael
