             Summary: outputDirectory is marked as mandatory whereas it is not 
really mandatory
                 Key: MRESOURCES-158
                 URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRESOURCES-158
             Project: Maven 2.x Resources Plugin
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.5
            Reporter: Jorg Heymans


in the documentation and plugin descriptor the outputDirectory config element 
is marked as mandatory. But since there is a default value of 
${project.build.outputDirectory} this element is not really mandatory. Other 
configuration elements with the same default value semantics are not marked as 
mandatory so i think for outputDirectory the same semantics should be applied.

this is especially troublesome for ideas that try to assist in maven 
configuration and rely on the plugin descriptor to figure out if elements are 
mandatory or not. See http://youtrack.jetbrains.net/issue/IDEA-80626
