------------------------------------------

Well struts, wicket, and even maven saw fit to name their project without 
securing a domain name first. I'm sure such names were decided upon by a quick 
check that there weren't any existing projects using that name. How is a Maven 
group id any different?

And if I take a quick look at the current repository as you suggested, I find 
the project 'ezwizard-rt' under the struts group id:

http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/net/sf/struts/

>From what I can tell, this project is not a part of struts, and after failing 
>to find it on sourceforge I managed to discover that it is hosted here:

http://www.superinterface.com/easywizard.htm

So how have your rules helped in this case? It seems to me that it has made the 
repository structure more confusing, as you imply that there is a direct link 
between domain and group id where obviously, for this project at least, there 
isn't!


And it is the Maven users that initially requested that I add my stuff to your 
repository. I am spending *my* free time helping to fulfull those users needs. 
Regardless of whether the "most popular projects" adhere to your rules, I am 
not comfortable with such rules that serve no obvious purpose.
