             Project: Maven Archetype
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.0-alpha-5
         Environment: Maven 3.0 RC3, JDK 6, Ubuntu
            Reporter: Jesse Glick
            Priority: Critical

rm -rf test && mvn -DarchetypeVersion=1.0 -DgroupId=test

succeeds. The same with 2.0-alpha-5 fails:

[ERROR] Cannot parse archetype descriptor

Indeed the id attribute is not supposed to be there, and 
http://fisheye.codehaus.org/browse/mojo/trunk/mojo/mojo-archetypes/osgi-archetype/src/main/resources/META-INF/maven/archetype-metadata.xml?r2=12260&r1=11739
 fixed this and will be in the next archetype release.

In the meantime, though, anyone trying to use the latest maven-archetype-plugin 
with the latest released archetype will be unable to, even though the 
unrecognized attribute did not actually harm anything. Please downgrade this 
class of error to a warning, at least for a while until corrected archetypes 
are broadly available.

Will try to create & submit a patch upon request.
