Should not require version be supplied on cmd line
--------------------------------------------------
Key: ARCHETYPE-189
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/ARCHETYPE-189
Project: Maven Archetype
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Generator
Environment: Any
Reporter: Clifton Craig
When invoking archetype:generate on the cmd line and specifying an archetype
you must also include a version number or the plugin crashes. I think it should
default to pulling down the latest deployed version of the given archetype.
This has caused problems with the new GMaven mojo archetype as the maintainer
rightfully doesn't want to include version numbers since it's constantly in
flux. Confusion comes from people reading the tutorial/example and copying
verbatim the cmd to the console and seeing failure messages and blaming the
GMaven project..
