There are two possiblities
a) you can structure it like:
resources/
log4j.properties
META-INF/
my-modules.xml
b) you can use targetPath element in defiition of your resources
<resource>
<directory>${basedir}/src/resources/descriptor</directory>
<targetPath>META-INF</targetPath>
<includes>
<include>*.xml</include>
</includes>
</resource>
I prefer a) as it is also supported by IDEs like IDEA or Eclipse.
