Fixing Maven Artifact: Jaxen

I have created some utility classes for testing purposes. Those depend on JDOM (used for XML formatting).

And JDOM itself has a dependency on jaxen:jaxen. But unfortunately the artifact deployed to Maven Central is broken (at least kind of).
To work around those issues with Jaxen use the following excludes:

      <dependency>
        <groupId>jaxen</groupId>
        <artifactId>jaxen</artifactId>
        <version>1.1.3</version>
        <!--

        -->
        <exclusions>
          <exclusion>
            <groupId>maven-plugins</groupId>
            <artifactId>maven-cobertura-plugin</artifactId>
          </exclusion>
          <exclusion>
            <groupId>maven-plugins</groupId>
            <artifactId>maven-findbugs-plugin</artifactId>
          </exclusion>
        </exclusions>
      </dependency>
