By the way, please add [m2] to your subject so other Maven 2 developers would take note. They might skip/miss out on your email, thinking it's a m1 question. :-)

All,

 So we are delving into the world maven2 and eclipse plugins.  In order
to package my plugin, I think I need a new artifact type since the
standard jar packaging won't suffice.  Just FYI, eclipse plugins are
actually zip files that contain your class files in a contained jar,
dependency jars, a special manifest and your resources.


So my questions are:



1.      Is a new artifact type needed?  Or can I do this by having a
really fancy pom.xml?
2.      If a new artifact type is needed, I can envision a couple places
in the build life cycle that I need to override (process-resources and
package).  Would the standard approach be to create one plugin for the
artifact lifecycle override (components.xml) and 2 more plugins for the
2 stages of the life cycle I want to override?



Thanks in advance!
