Re: site:attach-descriptor
I asked Oliver why the aforementioned goal "was removed from the built-in
lifecycle bindings for projects with packaging pom"? He said the decision
was to remove all reporting stuff from trunk.
I thought the decision was to remove reporting logic from Maven's core? I
don't see why the site plugin couldn't have an automatic binding to a phase.
Please let me know what I am missing.

That's a good point, but is the extra configuration worth the hassle? I
mean, generating a site seems pretty normal to me. Perhaps Maven should just
have the plugin handy anyway?

That's how it works, but it still has to drag down the plugin for projects that more often than not don't need it.

As an analogy, the source:jar command doesn't do anything for non-jar
projects. Couldn't something similar be done that when no site descriptor
exists, no site is generated? Otherwise, presto.

In this case, it was that not every parent POM project might have a site descriptor, so it shouldn't be downloading and using the site plugin for them.
