Hi,

  Do we want to use the buildnumber plugin ?
http://mojo.codehaus.org/buildnumber-maven-plugin/
  With it we can insert in our MANIFESTs the subversion release number.
  We use it at eXo but we put it in a profile not activated by default because it slows down the build too much.
  We activate it for our releases and in our continuous integration server.

  WDYT ?

Cheers,

Arnaud
