Announcement plugin changes Vincent Massol Added maven.announcement.file property and echo'd it during generation Added more information when running the plugin. Also added a check to verify if the announcement version matches an entry in the changes.xml file. Several new additions that makes the plugin more generic: the team name is now taken from pom.groupId, "[]" are removed from the first line, changes are sorted by type, changes report issue number and due-to, the download link is generated from pom.distributionDirectory and the "plugin has been tested with..." line has been removed. Update to ASL v.2 Remove the need for ${pom} interpolation in properties. The use of the maven:property tag is now used to glean a default property. Initial creation.
