[ANN] Mojohaus' Assembler Maven Plugin 2.0.0 Released

[Dan Tran <da...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

The Mojo team is pleased to announce the release of the Appassembler Maven
Plugin version 2.0.0.

The Application Assembler Plugin is a Maven plugin for generating scripts
for starting java applications. All dependencies and the artifact of the
project itself are placed in a generated Maven repository in a defined
assemble directory. All artifacts (dependencies + the artifact from the
project) are added to the classpath in the generated bin scripts.

configuration:

<plugin>
  <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
  <artifactId>appassembler-maven-plugin</artifactId>
  <version>2.0.0</version>
</plugin>
Hi,


This release consists of:

  * The usual dependency upgrades
  * Drop Java 5 support ( reason for pumping the version to 2.0)

clean for build optimization purpose
