Maven is not really set up to do this automatically, we could generate the separate artifacts using the assembly plugin, but there might be an issue with dependencies. For example, if [project]-plugins.jar has a dependency on another project, I don't think there is a way to differentiate it's dependencies from [project]-spi.jar. In other words, all the artifacts generated by the project share a pom, and therefor have the same dependencies. So [project]-spi would always include the same dependencies as [project]-plugin. For now, I will set it up to generate the multiple artifacts this way, and then if there are problems with dependencies, we can always change it later.
