Exactly! I'm not sure what the common stuff is though... ;-) In any case the
CCI project should make it easy for writing m2 container mojos.

That would be cool. It's exactly the reason for the creation of this "CCI"
project (I'm putting it in quotes as the name will probably have to change
as there might be a Sun trademark on CCI). The CCI project is already
operational. I'm just waiting for a home. I've proposed it on codehaus. If
it's accepted I can probably release a new version in about 2 weeks (I'm on
holiday till the 7th of August and I have only sparse internet
connection...).

Thanks
-Vincent
