The @phase will automatically cause a plugin to run at that phase, but the plugin must still be mentioned in the pom.

That, kind of defeats the purpose of having a default phase specified in the Mojo, does it not? And it certainly doesn't work that way for other plugins (the war plugin for instance that is bound to the package phase). So am I missing something here or is this a bug introduced with 2.0.10? Thanks Pankaj Okay, my mistake - although it was indeed the 2.1.0 mvn which was in my path, I had forgotten to change the value of my M2_HOME environment variable. Therefore, it was actually 2.0.10 which was being executed, which was why my goal was being ignored. And anyway, I had wrongly assumed that adding the '@phase prepare-package' annotation to the mojo was enough to trigger the goal's execution - you still have to add a <plugin><executions>...<goal> to the pom, and I can confirm that this works fine. Many thanks to Brett for asistance.
