Snippet from the output of running the command mvn archetype:generate > a.txt:
332: remote -> org.apache.maven.archetypes:maven-archetype-mojo (An archetype which contains a sample a sample Maven plugin.)
333: remote -> org.apache.maven.archetypes:maven-archetype-plugin (An archetype which contains a sample Maven plugin.)
Running the following commands generated near-identical pom files and Java source classes:
mvn archetype:generate -DgroupId=com.mycompany.app -DartifactId=my-app-plugin -DarchetypeArtifactId=maven-archetype-plugin -DinteractiveMode=false
mvn archetype:generate -DgroupId=com.mycompany.app -DartifactId=my-app-mojo -DarchetypeArtifactId=maven-archetype-mojo -DinteractiveMode=false
So what is the difference between maven-archetype-mojo and maven-archetype-plugin? Will either of these generate a sample plugin project? Why do we have both?

An archetype to generate a simplifed sample J2EE application. An archetype to generate a sample a sample Maven plugin. An archetype to generate a sample Maven plugin. An archetype to generate a sample Maven plugin site.

Introduction. In Maven, there are two kinds of plugins, build and reporting: Build plugins are executed during the build and configured in the <build/> element. Reporting plugins are executed during the site generation and configured in the <reporting/> element.
There is no difference. Maven Mojo is a minimal Maven Plugin.
What is a Mojo? A mojo is a Maven plain Old Java Object. Each mojo is an executable goal in Maven, and a plugin is a distribution of one or more related mojos.
I think we does not need both, just some mess in Maven world :)
