I am having difficulties getting the properties overriding to work properly.  
My web.xml is updated according to the instructions below and I know it is 
reading the file.  The problem is that no matter where I include the 
TurbineResources.properties (at the top or bottom of my.properties), its 
values always override the values in my.properties.  This is exactly opposite 
to what I want.  

I thought that perhaps by including TurbineResources first and specifying my 
values afterwards, the values in my.properties file would overwrite the 
values in TurbineResources, but it is not so.  The comment in the example 
my.properties however implies that this is true:

# The full path name to an additional properties file. Properties in
# this file will be included in this property set. Duplicate name
# values will be replaced, so be careful.

The only way I could get Jetspeed to recognize my values is to comment out the 
values in JetspeedResources (included by TurbineResources).  Of course, this 
seems to defeat the purpose of the custom properties file altogether.

I am using Jetspeed 1.4 final.  Any ideas why this would happen or what I'm 
doing wrong?

Thanks,
Brian
