Maven2 plugin - new features

For those that are interested:

A new snapshot 20060215.095015-22 has been pushed to the mortbay repository.

It is a significant refactoring of the plugin implementation which is intended
to allow the jetty5 plugin from the mojo project at codehaus to share the same 
functionality. More on that in a later post.

Most importantly, the snapshot supports 2 new goals and some new configuration
parameters.

The goals are now:

 jetty6:run
 jetty6:run-war       *new*
 jetty6:run-exploded  *new*

The "run-war" goal will first assemble your webapp into a war and then deploy it
to jetty6. This is useful if your webapp is complex to build and executing the
"compile" phase isn't sufficient. As with the "run" goal, you can specify a 
scan interval to keep Jetty watching the pom.xml and war file for changes and 
automatically redeploy it if changes are detected (eg if you execute mvn 
war:war in a different window).

The "run-exploded" goal will assembled your webapp into its exploded form and
deploy it to jetty6. As with the "run" goal, you can specify a scan interval to
keep jetty watching WEB-INF and your pom.xml and automatically redeploy if changes
are detected.

The plugin now also supports the optional configuration parameter <jettyConfig/>
