Maven for EAR

There are multiple SOs and blogs:

• most relevant
• http://antoniogoncalves.org/2009/10/23/because-i-always-forget-how-to-use-maven-ear-plugin/
• a litte out of date?

General theme is, either generate it using archetype:generate then pick something like 'org.jboss.spec.archetypes:jboss-javaee6-ear-webapp'.

This kinda works but JBoss specific.

The most valuable info relating back to WAS is this:

Especially the section on how to setup WAS in local repo.
