Because now every tool that cares about this folder needs to implement that same logic. If they don't, then they might be parsing/updating the wrong file with non-obvious impacts to the user. I just wonder if it's really worth the hassle? Having parallel but different settings.xml seems to be the only benefit and I wonder if that alone wouldn't cause more support problems. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@maven.apache.org
