   Thank you for sharing and introducing informations about contribution on the project. I'll follow all the indicated procedure for possible future contributions.
   
   About needs that made me look for this solution I exposed my specific scenario as solution on the following thread on stackoverflow:
   https://stackoverflow.com/questions/39286613/maven-shaded-jar-used-as-external-project-dependency/51443562#51443562
   
   Basically I needed to attach an uber jar artifact on my maven module without versioning it on my repository. Reason is that this artifact is then included as dependency into another module and this is the one uploaded on repository ( this will allow me to exclude transitive dependencies I had instead into the skipped one ).
   
   Moreover I found also that other people searched for this solution according to their needs.
   Here for example another thread on stackoverflow:
   https://stackoverflow.com/questions/17006405/exclude-jar-with-dependencies-from-deploying-to-nexus?rq=1
   
   In general I think it could be useful for all that scenarios where user want to generate attached artifacts and just use it locally for some reason without uploading them on repository.
   Furthermore I've forked from this plugin cause it already provides the "skip" option that allows to bypass artifact deploy. I thought so that this solution can help also users that want to bypass only a custom set of attached artifacts.
