> What I'm still missing from Ant is the ability to apply patches to assemblies that you're creating via the maven-assembly-plugin.
> In our project we're using JBoss AS bundled as a ZIP. To create a final distribution of the product we unpack and then have to change quite some configuration files within the JBoss AS tree. The problem right now is that for every JBoss AS update we have to re-patch the configuration files manually. It would be great if the maven-assembly-plugin would have inherent support for patches. That way it's also more clear what configuration section you're changing exactly.
