Daniel Kulp commented on MRRESOURCES-21:
----------------------------------------


I'm going to use most of this patch.   Thanks a bunch. 

The main change I'm going to make is to make supplementalModelFile an array of Strings (called supplementalModels) and use a ResourceManager to obtain them.     The main benifit this has is that supplements can be stored in a jar that is added as a dependency to the plugin, much like checkstyle/pmd config files.    You can also have multiple files.   Some as dependencies, some in the src tree, etc...

> Related to MRRESOURCES-2, I'd like to be able to deal with artifacts that have incomplete POM's, because incomplete NOTICE files are generated.
> But instead of having the MRRP append to a locally managed NOTICE file like MRRESOURCES-2, I'd like to augment the data model used by Velocity.
> The idea is that MRR plugin will take a parameter to a file which contains POM XML snippits.  The ModelInheritanceAssembler merges the POM XML snippits with the actual artifact POM.  Thoughts?  I'll plan on submitting a patch.
