Meaning that POM of master project will be loaded (POM = project.xml, project's properties and probably also maven.xml) and POM of given project will be intelligently merged with this POM. Intelligently means that for example depenencies will be aggregated not overriden (it is alredy a case) and project context ( set of properties) will be merged with context of the parent.
