Thank you! That was extremely helpful! I used -DarchetypeFilteredExtentions as you recommended and was able to create my archetype and generate based on this and my new project was setup perfectly (or so it seems right now).
I've logged the Jira ticket as your requested for the xNl file extension. Thank, Doug Hughes, President Alagad Inc.
