---------------------------------------

             Summary: Declare the 'assembly' module at the bottom of the <modules> element in the parent POM
                 Key: SPARK-5428
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-5428
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Build, Deploy
            Reporter: Christian Tzolov
            Priority: Trivial


For multiple-modules projects, Maven follows those execution order rules:
http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-multiple-modules.html

If no explicit dependencies are declared Maven will follow the order declared in the <modules> element.  

Because the 'assembly' module is responsible to aggregate build artifacts from other modules/project it make sense to be run last in the execution chain. 

At the moment the 'assembly' stays before modules like 'examples' which makes it impossible to generate DEP package that contains the examples jar. 

IMHO the rule of thumb should be to keep the 'assembly' module as the last element in the <modules> list.
