Users,
    I am involved in a project where I am building a base application.  This 
application will be extended to produce sub-projects.  The sub-project can override 
JSPs and config files, but "inherits" all the files...  
    
    For example I have 3 maven projects:

base-maven-project
   file1
   file2
   file3

extended1-maven-project extends base-maven-project
   file2

extended2-maven-project extends extended1-maven-project 
   file2
   file3

    The desired result:
  a.. extended1-maven-project contains only file2, but the build process will include 
all the files from base-maven-project.  
  b.. extended2-maven-project contains only file2, and file3, but the build process 
will include all the files from base-maven-project.  

The problem is that some files, such as a struts-validator file must be merged, others 
such as JSPs should be replaced.  Is there any maven plugins that can assist solving 
this problem?  And has anyone come across a problem such as this?
