How to create my own packaging type and my own build life cycle?
Dear Maven users, I have 2 questions:
1) Can I query the archived mailinglists? I can browse the archives
(http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/maven-users/), but cannot
seem to find a way to search through them.
2) I would like to create my own packaging type, with my own life
cycle. How can I achieve this? Is this documented somewhere?
I found some documentation in "Specifying a New Packaging" on
http://www.propellors.net/maven/site/guides/introduction/introduction-to-the-lifecycle.html,
but this is incomplete and it is no longer available on
http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-the-lifecycle.html.
Thank you,
Martijn

Thanks, it worked!
Could someone confirm this implementation is future proof?
