-------------------------------------------------

Has there been any resolution to this issue?  I am currently also trying to 
access environment variables from within <profile> (be it within profiles.xml 
and pom.xml) with no success.  Outside of <profile>, I can access environment 
variables just fine, but within <profile>, using the environment variable as an 
activation property, does not seem to work.

I've been unsuccessful trying to access the variable using the following 
methods within <profile>:
env.FOO
FOO
${env.FOO}
${FOO}

Any information reguarding this issue would be greatly appreciated... 
especially since this has been an issue for well over a year now (referring to 
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2276 ).  

Defining the variable via the commandline interface does work however, as 
stated in the link above.

Btw, my version of maven is 2.0.7
