Output from build

Netbeans 8.0.2

As an example, I created a new project via File -> New Project -> Maven -> Netbeans Module

I named the project "Fred", gave it a group id of net.verizon.mflacy.  I used the default of RELEASE80 for the NetBeans Version field.

I then right-clicked the resulting project and selected "clean and build" resulting in the output in the attached text file.

This bit...

--- nbm-maven-plugin:3.13:nbm (default-nbm) @ Fred ---
Copying module JAR to /home/flacy/Documents/Fred/target/nbm/netbeans/extra/modules
Generating Auto Update information for net.verizon.mflacy.Fred
No updater.jar specified, cannot validate Info.xml against DTD

...is present in ALL of my 8.x maven modules.  My netbeans installation does have the file platform/modules/ext/updater.jar
