it's worth a shot to turn the slash around. ../project.xml
${basedir}/../project.xml works on my windows machines.

Subject: multiproject build with inherited POMs
I'm getting a "can't find ..\project.xml" when trying to use multiproject to
build Maven plugins with POMs that inherit from the root POM. This is the
structure reflected in the plugins-build directory in the CVS tree. As a
sanity check, I pulled src/plugins-build/* and src/plugins-build/war/* from
CVS and got the same error. It occurs no matter which goal I specify; I've
tried "multiproject:site" and "multiproject:artifact" among others.
Perhaps it isn't evaluating the ".." in relationship to the working
directory of the subproject, and thus isn't finding the root POM? Or, am I
doing something wrong?
Here's the text of the error:
C:\Java\plugins2>maven multiproject:site
multiproject:site:
multiproject:create-nav:
