Hello again,

big apologies for the premature email. Seems like I did not have enough caffeine
today :-)

I hope someone can help me, so here is now my problem:

In the company I work for we have a somewhat big maven2 setup which is working
quite good so far. We now wanted to organize our release process in a more
structured way (esp. release-poms) to avoid problems with version ranges and I
found the maven release plugin, which looks like it can solve all our problems.
Currently I am trying to set it correctly up, but I always encounter a problem,
which is that the release pom is not correctly created. For all plugins that we
use the version number in the release-pom is set to "RELEASE" instead of the
actual version number. Here is an example:

This is in the master pom:
[...]
<plugin>
 <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
 <artifactId>maven-javadoc-plugin</artifactId>
 <executions>
   <execution>
     <id>attach-javadocs</id>
     <goals>
       <goal>jar</goal>
     </goals>
   </execution>
 </executions>
</plugin>
[...]

and this is what will end up in the release-pom

<plugin>
 <artifactId>maven-javadoc-plugin</artifactId>
 <version>RELEASE</version>  <-- this is the problem
 <configuration>
   <links>
     <link>http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/</link>
   </links>
   <aggregate>true</aggregate>
 </configuration>
</plugin>

Because of these broken version numbers the verify phase will fail and
I cannot use the release plugin at all. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks a lot for your help and apologies for my first email.

André
