Improve support for <developers> in reactor builds
--------------------------------------------------

         Key: MNG-1755
         URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1755
     Project: Maven 2
        Type: Improvement
  Components: POM  
    Reporter: mike perham


I would like to see something like <developerManagement> added which acts 
similarly to the other management elements in the POM.  This would allow a 
top-level project POM to list all the developers, their orgs, timezones, 
emails, etc and child projects to reference just the ID and the developers role 
in that module.  Something like this:

parent's pom.xml:

        <developerManagement>
        <developer>
            <id>msanchez</id>
            <name>Matt Sanchez</name>
            <email>[EMAIL PROTECTED]</email>
            <url>http://priori.webify.local:9090/display/~msanchez</url>
            <timezone>-6</timezone>
        </developer>
                <developer>
                        <id>mperham</id>
                        <name>Mike Perham</name>
                        <email>[EMAIL PROTECTED]</email>
                        <url>http://priori:9090/display/~mperham</url>
                        <timezone>-6</timezone>
                </developer>
        </developerManagement>

foo's pom.xml:

<developers>
  <developer>
    <id>mperham</id>
    <roles>
      <role>Owner</role>
    </roles>
  </developer>
</developers>

Our management wants to have one or two clear-cut owners for each module and we 
would like to use maven to document those owners but the current impl is 
terribly redundant since developers are not inherited.
