Maven super model

 Inheritance is recursive in Maven but there is a special model which is the implicit super parent in the lineage
 of models you may specify:

            plugin = new Plugin();
            plugin.setGroupId(tok[0]);
            plugin.setArtifactId(tok[1]);
            plugin.setVersion(tok[2]);
            goal = tok[3];

            // This won't be valid, but it constructs something easy to read in the error message
            for (int idx = 4; idx < tok.length; idx++) {
                goal += ":" + tok[idx];
            }
        } else if (numTokens == 3) {

              <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTC%E2%88%9212:00">-12</a> to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTC%2B14:00">+14</a>
              or a valid time zone id like "America/Montreal" (UTC-05:00) or "Europe/Paris" (UTC+01:00).
