Maven Build: Ear with Extra Resources in a Zip Code

Question

I have an ear project, some XSLT files, RNC schema files. I want the XSLT files, schemas, and documents to be external (for hot swapping), and I want to pack everything in a zip upon release. Lets name the project "foo". I have the following modules:

• foo (parental)
• foo-jar creates a jar file (with mbeans)
• foo-war creates a war file
• foo-ear creates an ear file, depends on jar and war

It all works, but here are my questions:

• Where are XSLT files, schemas, and documentation stored? Separate module? inside the parent project?
• How and where can I create an assembly that links the ear file and XSLT directories and schemas in zip?
