Currently, NMaven supports one type of attached artifact: exe.config. This needs to be extended for general artifact types, including satellitte assemblies. If you do a search for exe.config in the java class files, you will have a good idea of the classes that need to be modified to add support for satellite assemblies.

Components Impacted:
1) ArtifactContextImpl (trivial)
2) ArtifactInstallerImpl: Add artifact to pom.xml
3) ProjectDaoImpl (trivial excludes)
4) RepositoryConverterImpl

Plugins impacted:
1) Deploy plugin (as you need to deploy the satellites along with the main artifact).

I think the impact to any particular class is not high but to get it all working together and tested will require a modest amount of effort.

the above comment is not relevant for 0.16 I believe, but keeping open for future implementation
