[M2] assembly and lifecycle

[Rémy Sanlaville <re...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

With a simple pom.xml (cf [1]), if I execute mvn assembly:assembly, I have
the following behaviour (maven 2.0.5)

>mvn assembly:assembly
[...]
[INFO] [antrun:run {execution: default}]
[INFO] Executing tasks
     [echo] maven-antrun-plugin is triggered
[INFO] Executed tasks
[INFO] [site:attach-descriptor]
[INFO] [assembly:assembly]
[...]

Why, if you execute the assembly plugin, maven also execute others tasks
like antrun (with this pom test [1]) ?
I wonder if it is normal ?

Rémy
