I don't have a solution to your problem. But I had similar problems.
I played a bit with property settings recently. All my duplications in
my projects are in properties files. I couldn't find a way to load
properties from a master project.properties file.
I tried to load the properties in maven.xml:
<project default="site"
xmlns:ant="jelly:ant">
<ant:property file="${basedir}/../../master/project.properties"/>
</project>
However, this project didn't recognize the properties from my master
file. I'd be happy, if someone has a solution for that.
