Version............. Maven 2.0
Client.............. Windows XP
Repository Server... Windows 2000 with cygwin for ssh.

I found when the groupId contains a "." the goal deploy will hang after outputting the line during the second and subsequent deploys:
   [INFO] Retrieving previous build number from remote-repo

As an example, set the the groupId to "com.foo". The first deploy will succeed. Note the deploy will create a directory "com" and sub directory "foo" instead of "com.foo". The second deploy will hang.

According to the naming convention I found via a Google search ( http://maven.apache.org/reference/conventions.html ), the groupId and artifactId "should be comprised of lowercase letters, digits, and hyphens only".

So my questions:
1) Should the convention be mentioned on the POM reference page where the groupId and artifactId are described ?
  http://maven.apache.org/maven-model/maven.html

2) Is their a bug somewhere in the deploy goal that incorrectly generates the directory structure when the groupId contains a "."?

3) If a "." in the groupId or artifactId is invalid, should this not be reported as an error?
