Change name of assembled artifacts
We have a project "foo" that builds several assemblies - let's say one of
them is named "bar". The resulting artifacts get named foo-VERSION-bar.
The problem is that the tool that will be processing these artifacts really
wants them to be named foo-bar-VERSION. Is there a way to coax the assembly
plugin (or something else) to get the artifacts named like this? There are
no Maven projects that depend on these assembled artifacts so the renaming
isn't problematic from that perspective. Since we need an immediate
solution I am going to simply use the exec plugin to "mv" the artifacts as
need be, but I'm hoping to be able to replace that with a less ugly
solution.

That would be kind of like insisting that MySQL change its internal
data format. It's probably possible to change the repository format
if you want to dig into the code, but unlikely to be worth it.
I think you've already hit on the easiest solution, which is to copy
or move the artifacts somewhere that the tool can process them. (I
wouldn't rename them *in* the repo in case you later have some
maven-aware tooling.)
You could use the wagon plugin to transfer the file to some arbitrary location.
Another idea might be to use the Maven dependency plugin to pull the
artifacts down and rename them:
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-dependency-plugin/copy-mojo.html
, then have the tool process them.
Or you could fix the tool so it works with the Maven repo format.

As often said before, don't fight Maven. It will make your life difficult.

So there's absolutely no way to force Maven to deploy an artifact with a
name not in the standard format? If so, that's really unfortunate...

Changing the name in the repo is not possible. It has to conform to Maven
standard.

So, you could use a weird Ant task embedded in the Maven plugins flow to
change the name... But, I think you must think in a official/regular way to

Changing finalName does not impact the name in the repo (local or remote).
Just in the target folder.
