> Assembly documentation does not list all supported formats

> Key: MASSEMBLY-623
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-623

> Issue Type: Improvement

> Environment: Website
> Reporter: Curtis Rueden

>
> The assembly plugin supports several different assembly formats. However, the
> supported formats are enumerated in two different places:
> * On the [front page|http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-assembly-plugin/]
> * On the [formats/format element of the assembly descriptor
> page|http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-assembly-plugin/assembly.html#assembly].
> These two lists do not match; each has at least one item missing from the
> other. These lists should be reconciled such that either:
> A) each is a complete listing of all supported formats; or
> B) one says something like "etc." with a link to the other, as a canonical
> complete listing.
> I would argue that the formats/format section should list all supported
> types, since the assembly descriptor page is supposed to be a complete
> technical description of the descriptor format. The listing on the front page
> could either link to the descriptor page, or else fully recapitulate the
> listing, as long as new formats supported in the future continue to get added
> to both.
