We are pleased to announce the Java Application Plugin 1.3 release! 

http://maven-plugins.sourceforge.net/maven-javaapp-plugin/

Plugin to generate an executable JAR 

===============================================================================

Changes in this version include:

  New Features:

o Added support for multiproject goals: javaapp:javaapp 
  javaapp:install-snapshot javaapp:deploy javaapp:deploy-snapshot 
o Added flexible extension support. 
o Added support for uberjar.bundle property. 

  Fixed bugs:

o Fix manifest entries. 
o Fix usage of deprecated deploy and resource plugins. 

  Changes:

o Cumulate licenses in META-INF. 
o Use artifact plugin for install and deploy. 

  Removed features:

o Removed property maven.javaapp.manifest.extensions.add, since it added 
  manifest entries, that were only used for applets loading dependent jars 
  (they are already included using javaapp).
