    Description

      The generation of assembly info from the maven pom is desirable, especially in reguard to filling in version and copyright year, so having a static AssemblyInfo.cs to customize the value doesn't seem to be a good work around (unless I've missed an alternate way to apply filtering?)

      It is unclear where these might be sourced from
      [assembly: AssemblyCopyright("")]
      [assembly: AssemblyTrademark("")]
      [assembly: AssemblyCulture("")]

      The [assembly: AssemblyProduct("")] appears to be a combination of Company-Title and it would be good to be able to customize it.

      In regard to version, it appears maven2 version format isn't supported?
      If an alternate source for version could be provided so that the version formatted to .net/npanday standard could be used it would be helpful.

      For example Using the maven 2 standard format version of major.minor.revision-build reports issues due to generation requiring the 'string' version of major.minor.revision.build which can cause issues with version comparison.

      ie. <version>8.1.0-0-SNAPSHOT</version>
      generates
      [assembly: AssemblyVersion("8.1.0")]
      [assembly: AssemblyInformationalVersion("8.1.0-0-SNAPSHOT")]

      warning CS1607: Assembly generation – The version '8.1.0-0-SNAPSHOT' specified for the 'product version' is not in the normal 'major.minor.
      build.revision' format

      Best ref I found is http://mojo.codehaus.org/versions-maven-plugin/version-rules.html

      For example, Maven arranges the version list in the following manner:

      1.0.1.0
      1.0.10.1
      1.0.10.2
      1.0.9.3

      Version 1.0.9.3 should come before 1.0.10.1 and 1.0.10.2, but the unexpected fourth field (.3) forced Maven to evaluate the version as a string.
