-  <name>Maven Resources Plugin</name>
-  <description>
-    The Resources Plugin handles the copying of project resources to the output
-    directory. There are two different kinds of resources: main resources and test resources. The
-    difference is that the main resources are the resources associated to the main
-    source code while the test resources are associated to the test source code.
-    Thus, this allows the separation of resources for the main source code and its
-    unit tests.
