Maik Richey commented on MNG-4846:
----------------------------------


But then there is no difference to
{code}
      ...
      <activation>
        <activeByDefault>false</activeByDefault>
        <property>
          <name>!somePropertyName</name>
        </property>
      </activation>
      ...
{code}
and make no sense for me.

By specifying <name>somePropertyName</name> I would expect that property being 
there but not having the value "Value". That makes the difference.

To be more precise:
What I would like to do is defining some properties as default. The same 
properties should be used when activating a profile by property "env" and the 
value "target". Different properties should be used - and are defined in 
another profile - when specifying the property "env" with a value other than 
"target" to activate that profile. So the only way, rather than creating a 
profile for each possible value, is the way I tried to manage it and that's the 
way how it should work in my opinion.
