As you can see, I made some concrete proposals to reach this goal and am currently trying to implement some kind of proof of concept that would. But maven is a huge underdocumented beast to tame, even with the kind support of the list. I am currently trying to create a centralized RDF database using a plugin (ie. not touching on maven core) but I have basic problems to extract informations from my plugin's environment. Progress will be slow but there seems to be more than one people interested in it so I am eager to show something that could form the basis of a maven component. > > soapbox-eof Not sure of translation.
