> The following command:
> {code:java}
> mvn help:describe -Dplugin=org.apache.camel:sync-properties-maven-plugin 
> -Ddetail{code}
> ...displays the following description of _[the 
> org.apache.camel:sync-properties-maven-plugin|https://bit.ly/syncPropsMojo]_ 
> ({_}emphasis mine{_}):
> {code:java}
>     ...
>     Name: Camel :: Maven Plugins :: Sync Properties
>     Description: Maven plugin to help generating Sync Properties between POMs
>     
>     ...
>     sync-properties:sync-properties  
>     Description: Copy the properties *in* a POM *in* a different POM for 
> syncing purpose.
>     ...{code}
> Consider Camel's _source-to-sink_ metaphor. Think about how that metaphor 
> relates the concepts of "{*}_in_{*}" and "{_}out{_}" to the Camel DSL's 
> "{_}[{*}from{*}()|https://bit.ly/inFrom]{_}"; and 
> "[_to()_|https://bit.ly/outTo]"; semantics.
> Applying those _source-to-sink_ ("{_}out{_}" and "{*}_in_{*}", "{*}_from_{*}" 
> and "{_}to{_}") semantics to the original description of [_the 
> SyncPropertiesMojo_|https://bit.ly/syncPropsMojo], and substituting the word 
> "{*}_in_{*}" with the word it semantically corresponds to in the _Camel 
> source-to-sink_ metaphor, you would get:
> {quote} 
> _Copy the properties *from* a POM *from* a different POM..._
> {quote}
> Would it not, therefore, be both more grammatically correct ({_}in the 
> English language{_}) and clearer *_semantically_* to instead say:
> {quote}_Copy the properties *from* a POM *to* a different POM..._
> {quote}
