Declaring assembly dependencies
One of my projects contains a config directory in scm. I package that
directory up into a zip file. I would like my other maven projects to be
able to "depend on" this deployed assembly. Is this possible. Preferably
they would download the deployed config.zip assembly, but rebuilding the
config.zip which is located in a completly separate scm location would be ok
(but even more troublesome))
Cheers,
Matt.

Thanks, thats a good point. It would certainly be cleaner that way.
Thanks

Sure, but I wouldn't go the assembly/zip route. Instead, I would just
create another project with your config stuff in it, package it as a
jar, and install/deploy/version it just like any other project or
module.
Then you would use the maven-dependency-plugin's unpack goal to put
the config directory in your other projects where it is needed.
