I’ve got my plugin pom setup to build everything and construct the final zip file. The issue I’m trying to wrap my brain around is keeping my feature.xml and site.xml files up to date with the correct version info. Since I can’t use versions like 1.0.0-SNAPSHOT in my plugin, I have to munge the plugins pom version into something like 1.0.0.v${DATETIME} and insert that into the plugins descriptor (plugin.xml). Since the version in the plugin.xml changes I have to update the plugin entries in the feature descriptor (feature.xml), rev the feature and update the site.xml with the new feature version.
