Description

maven-archetype-simple directory content does not look like an archetype

I imagine it was more a test of archetype:create-from-project goal, ie. a sample project to try to create an archetype from.

I don't know:
1. if the generated archetype from sample project is good enough to be published as-is as an archetype
2. if yes, how we can publish it as part of normal build

perhaps it would be more convenient to transform the sample project to an archetype and stop dreaming of maintaining the archetype from its sample project
