I think the issue is the plugin's location in the repository. You have it
at
https://maven-repository.dev.java.net/repository/com.sun.tools.xjc.maven2/ma
ven-plugins/
But its group id is com.sun.tools.xjc.maven2 (note that maven-plugins is
not present.) I think if you move the contents of the maven-plugins
directory (jars and pom) up a level and remove the maven-plugins dir itself,
you might have more success.
I don't know this for certain but a plugin that I written with groupId
org.chip.ping.m2plugins winds up in that directory not a sub-directory name
maven-plugins.
I tried configuring your plugin with groupId
com.sun.tools.xjc.maven2.maven-plugins but that didn't work... Probably
because the pom doesn't match that.
