Allow definining properties directly in settings.xml ----------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-4889 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4889 Project: Maven 2 & 3 Issue Type: Improvement Reporter: redstun This is another aspect where Maven makes simple things hard. In my settings.xml, I want to have the following <settings> ... <properties>...</properties> ... </settings> but that's not working, reading the doc, I found that I have to 1. create a profile 2. make the profile active 3. define the property I want. I understand the need to have properties bound to a certain profile, but I do need profile relevant properties.
