A plugin manager would need to know how to find the dependencies of a plugin whether that be from a workspace of an IDE, a local Maven repository, or a remote Maven repository. During development in an IDE we would need layered resolution approach that would allow resolution from the workspace, then the local Maven repository and then from any number of remote Maven repositories. During development from the command line we would need a layered resolution approach that would allow resolution from...
