Wayne, Thanks for the clarification. From the way you describe it, I certainly dont want to use the build-helper plugin. I think I'll have to resort to the antrun plugin.
But I'm curious what you mean by "modify the plugin to attach it's output to MavenProject...". Where can I find more info on this?
