I think your real question might be, who is putting this stuff in my
WEB-INF/classes dir?
It is the resources plugin, as commanded by the war-plugin.
therefore, you would add a <build><resources> element to prevent this.
Below is a trivial example.
/r
========================================== src
src/main/resources/META-INF/foo.xml
========================================== target
target/foo-1.0.war
target/foo/META-INF/foo.xml
target/war/work/webapp-cache.xml
========================================== war contents
META-INF/
META-INF/MANIFEST.MF
WEB-INF/
META-INF/foo.xml
========================================== pom.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project>
<modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
<groupId>com.foo</groupId>
<artifactId>foo</artifactId>
<packaging>war</packaging>
<version>1.0</version>
<build>
<resources>
<resource>
<directory>${project.build.sourceDirectory}</directory>
<includes>
<include/>
</includes>
</resource>
</resources>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.1-beta-1</version>
<configuration>
<failOnMissingWebXml>false</failOnMissingWebXml>
<webappDirectory>target/${webapp.name}</webappDirectory>
<packagingExcludes>WEB-INF/classes/**</packagingExcludes>
<webResources>
<resource>
<directory>src/main/resources/META-INF/</directory>
<targetPath>META-INF</targetPath>
</resource>
</webResources>
<archive>
<addMavenDescriptor>false</addMavenDescriptor>
</archive>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
<properties>
<webapp.name>foo</webapp.name>
</properties>
</project>
