        Key: MPJNLP-7
    Summary: Added extra property maven.jnlp.cert.version to support certificate renewals
       Type: Improvement

     Status: Open
   Priority: Major

 Original Estimate: Unknown

    Project: maven-jnlp-plugin

Description:
A version string to be appended to each dependency version when generating version.xml.  (This is only useful if maven.jnlp.usejarversions is set to true).  This comes in handy, when your code signing certificate expires and is renewed.  Java Web Start requires that ALL jars be signed with the same certificate.  When renewing a certificate you must change all of the version numbers of all jars, so that the JWS client will re-download the jars that haven't changed, but have only been re-signed by the new key.  With this property, when you get a renewed key, all you have to do, is update the maven.jnlp.cert.version string to a new value, and the new version.xml will have all new version strings for ALL jars.
