Do you have a maven.xml file that specifies a default goal? I posted
something a while ago about not assuming anything about default goals.

If you have no default goal specified and don't specify a goal on the
CLI then maven does what you tell it. Nothing :-)

Ok, that was the conclusion I just reached when I tried java:jar, that the
default goal must've been removed. So now I have to define a maven.xml file
for every project? Hmm. Not sure about the logic behind that, but at least
things are working now.

Thanks for the help. Now things are working again, I just have to figure out
why the xdoclet plug-in isn't working ;-).
