No, there is noch such rule. In fact, there isn't much magic behind
Maven's groupId and artifactId, really. It's just a matter of taste how
you name (by which artifactId is meant) your artifacts within a
group. Their artifactIds are directly reflected in their filenames.
If you wanted to place many artifacts within the same group, though, a
artifactId-nomenclatur would help people to find what they were looking
for. But it's completely up to you to come up with such a convention and
communicate it to the users (in one or another way).
