maven should not use beta plugins by default
--------------------------------------------

          Key: MNG-3781
          URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3781
        Project: Maven 2
      Issue Type: Bug
      Components: Plugins and Lifecycle
     Environment: n/a
       Reporter: Alvin Thompson


i just wasted a lot of time trying to figure out why i was getting duplicate files in my jar. since i originally thought it was a netbeans issue, i wasted a lot of their time as well. to make a long story short, it was a problem with the version of the maven assembly plugin that was being used to create the jar (2.2-beta-2).

the question is, why on earth does maven download and use beta plugins by default? most users simply want reliability, and don't want to be guinea pigs for the latest, greatest version.
