Description

When running the announcement plugin on multi-module projects, it is sending one mail by submodule.
Should be able to configure this behaviour. We would like just one email for the whole project

Hereunder a suggestion of working patch I have test locally:
Into AnnouncementMailMojo.java:

/**

• If true, will generate the changes only for the root module in case of project with sub-modules.
  *
• @parameter expression="${plugin.aggregate}" default-value = "true"
  */
  private boolean aggregate;

...

public void execute()
throws MojoExecutionException
{
if (!project.isExecutionRoot() && aggregate)

{ // Execute only for the main module in case of project with sub-modules return; }

....
