+1 for reducing confusion.

Okay, so then it is more or less the official community version. We sure
don't make that very clear. And, btw, the documentation for the mojo is
weighing in at 0 bytes right now:
http://mojo.codehaus.org/jboss-maven-plugin/deploy-mojo.html
So that should probably get fixed. Perhaps a bad build?

I fixed the site docs a while ago in the source [1], but never got around to
doing a release, so the site didn't get updated. It's been hard to tell how
many people are actually using that plugin so I didn't put too much effort into it.
I was also under the impression that Arquillian would reduce/eliminate the need
for the jboss maven plugin, but I don't know too much about it. Maybe we should
meet up next week to discuss?
