John Casey commented on MNG-294:
--------------------------------

for now, I'm working on the assumption that this is a file identical in 
capability to the ~/.m2/settings.xml file, but exists in ${maven.home}.

This should provide separation of truly global settings from user-specific 
settings, and local user settins will override. I'm planning on implementing a 
merge functionality similar to the project inheritance, except inside 
o.a.m.settings in the maven-core project...if this needs to be more generally 
available, I can move the MavenSettingsBuilder, etc. into the src/main/java of 
maven-settings. On second thought, I'll go ahead and do that last bit as well, 
since the ant tasks will probably want this...

Please correct here if my assumptions are wrong.
