title: Maven package as war : does not consider a folder under src/main/java with *.vm files (velocity templates)
body: <p>I use Maven to package as war a Java EE project.</p>
  
  <p>I use tomcat-maven-plugin, I do simply "mvn clean tomcat deploy" .</p>
  
  <p>Everything works fine, except a folder which is not packaged into the War file.</p>
  
  <p>This folder is a source folder under src/main/java  with only *.vm files (not .java files) which are my Velocity templates.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a way to tell maven to package this folder ! ( I suspect only package with .java files are considered)</p>
  
  <p>In console I get : </p>
