Maven plugin output

The maven plugin does not seem to respect the outputFolder for any other output than the JUnit reports.

This clutters the project folder with several (at least 3) log files that is really annoying.
Is this behaviour by design or is it just not implemented?

I don't mind contributing a fix (if possible ofc) but i am behind a very restrictive firewall here at work so it will have to wait until i get home.

PS The Quote feature of the forum has a very
funny
rendering...

    Ok, i am all checked out and starting to build but... maven 1? Ouch!
    Maven 3 is soon ready so maybe now is the time to migrate?

    Thats a side note, still important but nevertheless a side note.

    It seems to be the logging that is setup in the runner class that simply just logs in what ever way its configured.
    Right?

    Not in the clear yet if this is at all fixable without major coding in which case i can probably live with the extra log files.
    If anyone knows pleas enlighten me.

    Browsing through the code i realize that i can live with the log files unless there is an easy way to turn them off like a log4j conf or something.

    I think i will give a maven port a stab if you don't mind though since that hurt me a lot more.
    This issue is probably not the most suitable place for this, ill make another thread and post updates.
