Brett Porter commented on MSITE-87:
-----------------------------------

are you happy to list them all individually? You can do this in the next version:

<menu name="Selected Reports">
  <item name="The Fudgcicle Report" ref="dependencies" />
</menu>

>          Key: MSITE-87
>          URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MSITE-87
>      Project: Maven 2.x Site Plugin
>         Type: New Feature

>     Versions: 2.0-beta-4
>  Environment: Windows/XP, Maven2 
>     Reporter: Chris Markle

> Assume that I have a set of Project Reports such as:
> #  Project Reports
>     * Changes Report Plugin
>     * JavaDocs
>     * Maven Surefire Report
>     * Source Xref
> I would like to have a way to change the names of these in the resulting site... For example if I wanted "Maven Surefire Report" to be "Unit Test Report", is that possible? 
> Why you ask? Two reasons... The first one is that I was trying to make a Maven2-generated site look "close" to a Maven1-generated site and these reports had different names between 1 and 2. The second is that there is a lot of inconsistency between the names and if you're an anal perfectionist (like I can be at times), you'd want more consistency. Just consider these names below:
> >> #  Project Reports
> >>     * Changes Report Plugin
> Says "plug-in"... only one that does...
> >>     * JavaDocs
> >>     * Maven Surefire Report
> Says "report"... only one that does... redundant with "Reports" in "Project Reports"
> >>     * Source Xref
> I've also seen other report titles that are in lower case also, while these above are in upper case.
> Brett pointed out in an email the following: "This isn't easily possible at the moment. The report names are defined
> in the report code itself, and often internationalised. I think a good general solution would be to allow you to feed overriding resources to the site plugin, and to document the properties used to internationalise the various pieces of text so that you can customise the site via that. Please make a feature request for this feature."
> So here you go with the feature request...
