Jacob Robertson commented on MNG-2968: -------------------------------------- I certainly understand and respect what you're trying to accomplish, but the sad fact is that if this suggested fix is implemented, it will break 90% of the artifacts in my company, and will mean we have to do re-tooling on the inhouse things we've done that depend on artifact id, cvs module name, and project name all being the same. This is a sweeping, non-backwards-compatible change, and it shouldn't be done lightly. > Forbid dots in artifactId > ------------------------- > > Key: MNG-2968 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2968 > Project: Maven 2 > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: POM > Affects Versions: 2.0.6, 2.1-alpha-1 > Reporter: Carlos Sanchez > Fix For: 2.1-alpha-1 > > > artifactIds with dots are potential trouble.
