Hi Oscar, On a recent project I faced the same problem but due to some project limitations I was using AppFuse 1.9.4 with SpringMVC.
To allow parallel development of both generic code (which I called CORE) and project-specific code (which I called CUSTOM) I modified AppFuse's build logic and directory structure as following: 1. I moved AppFuse's original src, web, test folders into a new folder called core; 2. I changed AppFuse's build logic to get files from these new directories; 3. I created new folders src, web, test inside a folder called custom. This name 'custom' was a configurable property in the build props file. It could be, for example, the name of the client I wanted to add customizations to the generic implementation; 4. I added new steps in AppFuse's build logic to, during build, copy files from core directories to a temporary folder, and then overwrite these with files from the custom directory. The final result was that the build logic would inject custom files into jars and wars overwriting any generic implementation, if it existed. I am not sure if that was the best approach but it worked fine for my needs, I am just unsure if it would be much harder to implement with Maven for AppFuse 2.x...
