[m2] generating uml documentation
Anyone know of a plugin to generate a uml diagram from the java classes
and include it in the documentation? This would be immensely useful to
me.

Sort of... you can use UmlGraph as an alternate doclet with the Javdoc
plugin. There's an example here (it may be out of date, I just
started updating it yesterday and haven't made it all the way
through):

With UmlGraph 4.2, the concept of "views" was introduced.

I started working on an upload bundle for UmlGraph, but I'm not sure
what to put in the <license> element. There doesn't seem to be any
particular license, just a generic statement on the website and in the
source code files.
