let me be more precise. The maven.xml is indeed inherited (it works). The 
issue I have is with the project.properties which does not seem to be 
inherited. Is that the normal behaviour? Is there some doc on inheritance that 
I can look at (BTW, I've noticed the <extend> tag is not documented on the web 
site)?
