cascading dependencies

[Nathan Coast <na...@codeczar.com>]

Hi,

I think this should work but I'd like for someone to confirm this before 
I try it.

A plugin on remote repo A.  This plugin declares a dependency to a jar 
file on remote repo B, including the remote repo declaration in the 
plugin's project.properties.

A user declares a dependency to the plugin including the plugin's remote 
repository within their project's project.properties.

When a goal is executed, maven will locate the plugin from Repo A and 
download it.  Prior to executing a goal in the plugin the jar file will 
be downloaded from Repo B.  (assuming neither existed in the repo in the 
first place).  The user need not declare repo b in their project's 
project.properties.

Sound about right?

cheers
Nathan
