there is some good documentation for the plugin here: http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-assembly-plugin/usage.html

However, there are a few minor problems I'm still researching how to resolve. First off, the zip file always has the name of the assembly appended to the name of the zip file. IE: ModelGlue-1.0-SNAPSHOT-cfml-resources.zip, where cfml-resources is the ID of the assembly. The other issue is that the zip file doesn't include the META-INF folder which would normally hold the pom files that define the dependencies. To clarify what I'm trying to do, I'm trying to create a set of CFML code that can depend on other CFML code that I can use as dependencies for a CFML application. I don't actually need to zip these up. A jar would be just fine. If I change the packaging to jar then I DO get a jar, it just doesn't have any of my CFML code in it. It'd be really great if I could find a way to put everything from the src/main/cfml directory into the root of the jar. If there's any documentation you can recommend on how to do this, that'd be great. I'm really just getting started with Maven and I'm using it for a fairly non-standard language. As such, the learning curve is a bit steep.
