Description

**[Réda Housni Alaoui](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=ralaoui)** opened **[MBUILDCACHE-84](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MBUILDCACHE-84?redirect=false)** and commented

I think it would be nice to allow each maven plugin to declare its default caching configuration in its own project repository (e.g in a file located in the plugin's jar /META-INF).
That would allow to have a growing catalog of default plugin configurations.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the Maven build cache extension and the proposed plugin JAR location, /META-INF. Determine how a plugin could declare default caching configuration and how the extension would discover it. Done should allow individual Maven plugins to provide defaults from their own repositories while building a catalog of configurations.
