----------------------------------------------------------

Agreed.  The "ready for release" info in this report is useful for 
single-module projects.

I just spent a good half hour trying to figure out why the report wouldn't run 
for my project, and ended up stepping through the code in a debugger until I 
found it.  At the very least, can someone please at least update the 
documentation for this goal to mention that it "requires a reactor build" (or 
"only generates a report for multi-module projects")?

>             Project: Maven 2.x Project Info Reports Plugin

>
> We are using the dependency convergence report for a quick check if a project 
> could be released or not. Unfortunately the report is not created for single 
> module projects.
> MPIR-10 mentions that it is useful for multi module and therefore disabled by 
> default for single module projects. Unfortunately "by default" is not correct 
> as there is no option to activate it.
> At our site the report also makes sense for single modules. The report shows 
> if there are snapshot versions of other projects used. 
> Of course someone could take a look into the dependency report and search for 
> SNAPSHOT. But it is a lot easier for the developers to follow a simple rule 
> "look into this report" - and it could be used programmatically if the report 
> is alway present.
> Is there any reason against activating this report also for single module (an 
> option which is false per default would be sufficient)?
