It is also interesting that we jumped on wagon of minor convention
and forgot the praise for all the good works that developer has put
in :-)

There is no way that we can infer enforcement this convention. If the
plugin belongs to a group then it is possible.
however, personally I like name-maven-plugin since it is easy to use
key board to do auto complete when I have bunch of plugins to manage.

Subject: Re: Maven Overview Plugin version 1.4 has been released
as long as the plugin has its own groupId, the artifactId
can be any thing.
IMHO, even if the plugin has its own groupId, I agree with
Stephen that it's better to keep the convention :
maven-_____-plugin for o.a.m.p plugins
_____-maven-plugin for other plugins
This was news to me to. Is this documtented anywhere - prehaps
it needs to
be or made more prominent.
The only thing I could find from google (maven plugin naming
conventions)
was the following two pages neither of which stated this
convention.
http://www.sonatype.com/books/maven-book/reference/writing-plugins-sect-plugin-prefix.html
<snip>In other words, when the Maven Plugin Plugin is generating
the Plugin
descriptor for your plugin and you have not explicitly set the
goalPrefix in
your project, the plugin:descriptor goal will extract the prefix
from your
plugin's artifactId when it matches the following patterns:
${prefix}-maven-plugin, OR
maven-${prefix}-plugin
</snip>
And
http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-naming-conventions.html
Which mentions nothing... It seems like although codehause
standardised
one _-maven-plugin and maven.a.o standardised on maven-__-plug-in
other
groups haven't standardised on either and they are all a mix
e.g.
maven-jetty-plug-in (org.mortbay.jetty)
except, afaik, jetty have changed from maven-jetty-plugin to
jetty-maven-plugin *because* they were told (by somebody other
than me) that
the convention was ____-m-p for not o.a.m.p and m-____-p only for
o.m.a.p
See: http://docs.codehaus.org/display/JETTY/Maven+Jetty+Plugin
*Jetty Version Information*
Jetty7 - This plugin was renamed to jetty-maven-plugin to better
conform to
maven2 convention.
tools-maven-plugin (org.apache.geronimo.genesis.plugins)
maven-jaxme-plug-in (org.apache.ws.jaxme)
(also try a quick search in nexus for *-maven-plug-in and maven-*-
plug-in -
and it looks like the hourse has bolted..)
