Description
**[Hervé Boutemy](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=hboutemy)** opened **[ARCHETYPE-495](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARCHETYPE-495?redirect=false)** and commented
`ArchetypeGenerator.generateArchetype()` is really misleading: it's not about generating an archetype, but about generating **a project from** an archetype
this API cause strong confusion in the archetype lifecycle: sample project -> archetype project -> archetype artifact -> generated project
