> Currently all artifacts in a maven2 repository must be named ${artifactId}-${version}[-${classifier}].${packaging}. Sometimes this is simply not possible. Jars can be renamed easily enough, but other binaries cannot.
> My case involves .NET. .NET assemblies are completely analogous to java jars - simply a packaging of classes. The crucial difference though is that .NET assemblies cannot be renamed (as classes are located based upon their containing assembly name). There are plenty of existing third party .NET libraries which currently cannot be placed in a maven repository. (Note that if the assembly is renamed such that, for instance, it has no version in the name, this is no problem as .NET embeds this information into the assembly itself.)
