This is the archetype's template pom.xml, not the owning project pom.xml, and hence that line will get processed and removed by the template engine. I stated in my original email that this is the file in question: src/main/resources/archetype-resources/pom.xml.

I am not saying this is a good idea. It's just a undocumented workaround that I discovered. I much prefer the archetype plugin itself to provide a way to un-escape the dollar sign so it won't get substituted by engine. Or simply populate the parameter ${dollar} instead of making user to set it is a step to improvement.

Added this on top of pom.xml

Doesn't that make it invalid xml?  I'm not sure this is a good idea if
anything other than Maven needs to consume the files.

Specifically I wonder whether that line ends up in the pom deployed to
the artifact repository when you release the project.
