I agree with this. There may be certaintly cases where buildfiles can be just used but I fail to see what is this big volume of buildfiles that out of the sudden will be available for reuse. Can someone post a real example of importing lets say 3 different buildfiles from 3 different jakarta projects being able to do something meaningful with the combine buildfile?

These are different concepts and I thought basedir.<project.name> had been added for just that use.
