Possible regression in Assembly Plugin 2.2
Hi
I created an issue in JIRA [1] for what I think is a regression in
version 2.2 of the Assembly Plugin. When digging deeper in JIRA I found
more related, but not identical, issues [2].
What I would like to know is whether the change was a deliberate or not.
If it was deliberate then we need to update the docs as per
MASSEMBLY-516 [3].

[2] http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-519
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-520

Thanks for the clarification John.

The documentation should reference <descriptorRefs/> configuration, not
<descriptors/>. I've been watching the JIRAs, but haven' had time to
mount a new offensive to get another release out.
The short story is there was a lot of potential for bad things to happen
in the complex code used to load descriptors. Paired with the fact that
<descriptors/> is meant to load descriptors from the project source tree
somewhere, it made sense to go back to loading <descriptors/> only in
this way, and use <descriptorRefs/> for the rest.
Unfortunately, I didn't see that the shared-descriptor example uses
<descriptors/>. I'll try to roll a site update quickly to take care of
the incorrect documentation.
