Ok, now we're talking advanced stuff. I would only put the execution declaration in the pluginMgmt section if it would be something that is to be reused by several children projects. Otherwise I would put the declaration in build/plugins/plugin in the project it belongs. But there are exceptions to this of course. One would be if you want to configure the default execution (the one from CLI) differently than the one(s) bound to the lifecycle. Then you need to re-define the default execution (which is the one from CLI) in pluginMgmt and for that execution add the configuration you want (thus, within the execution section, not on plugin level). But this is me. Others may very well have a different opinion. /Anders > >> /Anders >> >>> >>>> And some people like defining the version of plugins in the pluginMgmt >>>> section but not in build/plugins.
