[m2] Finding a plugin we wrote?

[Dave Neuer <dn...@BodyMedia.Com>]

Hi,

In order to be able to reuse test code (see
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/maven-users/200508.mbox/%3cD1BD
5B28AB3E404F8FC86FB05EB8552D06F3DE@mailserver.office.bodymedia.com%3e),
I've written a plugin which will create a test artifact so that other
projects can depend on that.

However, I'm only able to invoke the plugin if it's in my local
repository and I use the -no-plugin-updates option. Without that option,
I get the following stacktrace:

This, despite the fact that we have our own maven repo set up, and I am
pointing to it in the <pluginRepositories /> section of the POM for the
project that wants to use this.

Can anyone tell me what I need to do to use the plugin without having to
have it hosted at the Apache maven repo?

Thanks,
Dave
