add standard skip configuration option

Dennis Lundberg added a comment - 07/Oct/10 1:28 PM When you say "the standard skip configuration option" which one do you mean? Can you give us an example of how it would be used?

jieryn added a comment - 07/Oct/10 1:38 PM Skipping is useful in large hierarchies of parent/child POMs where we load up the top level corporate POM with a lot of functionality and have it skipped where it is not desired. That way a single, overridable, property could be used to disable the particular function. Check out... http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-checkstyle-plugin/checkstyle-mojo.html#skip http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-javadoc-plugin/javadoc-mojo.html#skip http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-pmd-plugin/cpd-mojo.html#skip http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-pmd-plugin/pmd-mojo.html#skip http://mojo.codehaus.org/findbugs-maven-plugin/findbugs-mojo.html#skip ...etc
