[m2.0.5] maven-release-plugin changes HTML entities

Hi,

I'm actually evaluating Artifactory as repository proxy/cache and today played a bit with the maven-release-plugin (2.0-beta-5-SNAPSHOT; more precisely maven-release-plugin-2.0-beta-5-20070301.114416-5.jar according to my local repository).

My pom.xml started with the following:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE xml [<!ENTITY quot "&#34;">
               <!ENTITY euro "&#x20ac;">
               <!ENTITY reg "&#174;">
               <!ENTITY nbsp "&#160;">
               <!ENTITY Auml "&#196;">
               <!ENTITY Uuml "&#220;">
               <!ENTITY Ouml "&#214;">
               <!ENTITY auml "&#228;">
               <!ENTITY uuml "&#252;">
               <!ENTITY ouml "&#246;">
               <!ENTITY raquo "&#187;">
               <!ENTITY szlig "&#223;">]>
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"
        xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
        xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/maven-v4_0_0.xsd">
	<modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
	<groupId>de.ukv</groupId>
	<artifactId>maven</artifactId>
	<version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
	<name>
		Voreinstellungen f&uuml;r Maven-basierte Projekte
	</name>
etc.

"mvn release:prepare" went fine, but "mvn release:perform" gave me a return code 500 when Maven finally tried to deploy the pom.xml to Artifactory. I could track that down to a bug in Artifactory (1.2.0.1) which obviously doesn't like when a pom.xml contains umlaut characters.

When I then looked at my pom.xml I wondered:

1) The XML header above wasn't there anymore
2) The <project...> header which originally spread over three lines was only line.
3) "&uuml;" was changed into an umlaut ("ü")


Is this normal behaviour or did I just encounter a bug in the release plugin? Is it even possible to prevent the plugin from changing my pom according to 1-3? I haven't seen much about that in the docs at http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-release-plugin/...


Thanks for any hints

Thorsten
