I agree with Robert here. removal of profiles.xml file leaves maven with no non-sharable, per-project configuration option. Ive added my example to the issue http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4060. It would be doable with settings.xml but it would be uber-cumbersome to do so. It could partly

With the alpha releases of Maven 3 published we'll see how developers react on this issue. I've introduced Maven during several projects and my experience is that newbies fear the settings.xml. They let a pro setup their settings.xml for the repository and from that moment on it's an avoided

I didn't say it's not possible without profiles.xml, but without it you have to make a choice between the best of the worst. Let's stick to the passwords. You don't want to expose them in the pom.xml, right? But what if project A en project B both have a ${password} in their pom.xml, from the

I heard some time ago that the profiles.xml were removed in Maven3. Although I'm still using 2.1.0 I want to be prepared for such changes. IMHO I think it's a bad choice to remove this option. Maven should provide some sort of way where developers can set/change project properties without

In the settings.xml it's not possible to activate a profile by project. Then again: I believe settings.xml are actually maven-settings and not project-settings. For most users it's a big step to dive into the settings.xml. For them there are only a few reasons to access the settings file: - to

Well, the mixin support should cover the profiles.xml and moreeven better it should be possible to resolve the mixins from the repository which means they are versioned and deployed artifacts like everything else. On Wed, Jun 24, 2009 at 11:41 AM, Robert Scholte rfscho...@codehaus.orgwrote:
