>          Issue Type: Improvement

> When packaging a web-application, maven-war-plugin generates a cache file, as 
> described here: 
> http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-war-plugin/exploded-mojo.html#cacheFile
> This cache file is an XML file but the generated file doesn't contains an 
> Schema or DTD declaration on its header. This makes impossible to validate 
> such file, generating warnings in the most common Java IDEs. Since it is a 
> mandatory XML file I believe it should has a model specification somewhere (a 
> XSD Schema I hope), eventually just not released for public usage.
> The steps I expect to make Maven 2 WAR plugin better:
> - to modify the generator of the webapp-cache.xml file to include the proper 
> XML header (with namespace and schema location)
> - to make the schema of such file publicly available, in order to give the 
> developers and automatic tools a chance to validate any error in a deployable 
> artifact.
> This will give us a chance to detect potential bugs before to deploy a 
> web-application.
> ----------- The expected header is something like:
> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
> <webapp-structure xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-war-plugin"; 
> xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
>       xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-war-plugin
> http://maven.apache.org/???/???.xsd";>
> ...
> </webapp-structure>
