can a plugin execute another one ?

Hello,

I need some custom packaging that requires to post-process the
tar.gzgenerated by the assembly plugin.

How can I force the execution of the assembly plugin from another plugin ?
The @execute goal="" only applies on goals from the same plugin, and
assembly is not attached to a phase.

Nico.

I know that a plugin can fork a maven execution if it needs to... can't
remember how
