[MAVEN] ${pom.properties} is a ArrayList of String?

[Nacho G. Mac Dowell]

Hi all, I was trying to use ${pom.properties} and I found it is an 
ArrayList of Strings in the form "property:elementName:...:". I was 
thinking it might be useful to have them as Nodes. What do you think? 
The problem I am facing is that I have quite a few external links in my 
documentation and I would like to keep them separate from the docs. I 
first thought of  putting them in the project.properties, but some of 
these links are quite "tied" to the project (actually the project I am 
talking about is JaxMe) and It would be nice if I could have them in the 
pom. Also, if I put them in the project.properties I only have access 
(at least to my knowledge) when not using dots (.) in the key. I was 
thinking of something like this:

<properties>
   
<jaxme-jelly-tag-library>http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/jelly/libs/jaxme/index.html</jaxme-jelly-tag-library>
   .....
</properties>

and then access them as: 
${project.properties.getChild("jaxme-jelly-tag-library")} or something 
similar.

This way we would (easily) avoid the problem that arised when moving 
from nagoya in apache. Other suggestions are very welcome.

I would also like to draw attention to bug #MPXDOC-131 which gives 
direct access to velocity in user-documentation when 
maven.docs.src.templates=true. I know I can use maven.xml for this but I 
beleive it is easier to use it this way. There are no side-effects 
(maven.docs.src.templates defaults to false) and quite a few benefits!

PD: Does anybody know where I can find org.apache.maven.project.Model? 
It is now in a separate artifact, but what project? Thanks!
