Body:
But then you have to prevent people using entities or properties in a POM at all:
<version>&my-comp-version;</version>
is as evil than
<version>${my.comp.version}</version>
Maybe it's just me, but I cannot follow the argumentation. Why does a resolved POM
(i.e. no external references at all and all inherited tags embedded) interfere with
that long term goal? The deployed POM would contain any information.

Summary: POM example <extends> doco is non-portable

Description:
In the documentation for the POM, the example includes:
<extends>${basedir}/../project.xml</extends>
which will wreak havoc on any attempts to use the pom without having the parent
project's files on hand. This means that this pom is next to useless, unless we can
first checkout the parent project from scm or somesuch. The scm info is in the POM, so
you see a circle beginning to emerge...
We should change this example to be:
<extends>${maven.repo.local}/${pom.groupId}/poms/${pom.id}-${pom.currentVersion}.pom</extends>
where all pom.* values are filled in manually with the actual values.
