title: Where can I obtain the maven-source-plugin?
body: <p>I checked out an open-source project from SourceForge's SVN source control using the Eclipse Maven plugin. After it checks out, I get this error in the pom.xml file:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>Error resolving version for plugin
    'org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-source-plugin' from the repositories
    [local (C:\Documents and Settings\thomas.owens\.m2\repository),
    central (http://repo1.maven.org/maven2)]: Plugin not found in any
    plugin repository</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>I'm fairly new to Maven, but I followed the installation instructions for Apache Maven and the Eclipse plugin. It seems weird that this plugin would not be found in the central plugin repository for Maven or my local repository, when I can clearly see a directory located at <code>C:\Documents and Settings\thomas.owens\.m2\repository\org\apache\maven\plugins\maven-source-plugin</code> that contains a single <code>resolver-status.properties</code> file.</p>
  
  <p>Any thoughts as to why this plugin might not be found and where I can find it?</p>
