Hi folks,

I'm currently looking at moving Fulcrum to M2 and would like to use the grunge work you did on commons-parent - looking at it I have a few questions/improvements ...

1) Legal Stuff
=========================================================================
the ASL is missing in the parent pom


2) Improvement of IDE project generation
=========================================================================

in my pom I configure IDEA and Eclipse to download the sources when creating the project files - this makes stepping through used libraries much easier

     <plugin>
       <!-- generate the IntelliJ project files -->
       <artifactId>maven-idea-plugin</artifactId>
       <configuration>
         <downloadSources>true</downloadSources>
       </configuration>
</plugin> <plugin>
       <!-- generate the Eclipse project files -->
       <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
       <artifactId>maven-eclipse-plugin</artifactId>
       <configuration>
         <downloadSources>true</downloadSources>
         <downloadJavadocs>false</downloadJavadocs>
       </configuration>
</plugin>


3) Creating sources jar
=========================================================================

in my projects I always create the sources jar not only for release candidates and releases - this allows to quickly make a SNAPSHOT install in your local repo including the sources - having said that you can always do a manual invocation but it would reduce the complexity of the parent pom


4) Reporting
=========================================================================

I have a few standard reporting plugins which could be an useful addition - maven-changes-plugin, maven-pmd-plugin, taglist-maven-plugin (codehaus)


5) commons-build-plugin
=========================================================================

What is it exactly doing?


Thanks in advance

Siegfried Goeschl
