D/E were meant to work in cases where the - leading character might
be a problem. If it's never a problem, we don't need them. If the
only argument to the -P option can be something like "-
myProfile" (leading dash) then we have no need for it...and the !
notation might make this even better.

2.0.x and 2.1 work the same after your change. "+" means activate
and "-" means deactivate. I'm guessing it was just a typo in 2.1
that had them reversed.
What's the reason for the D: and E: syntax? Do we need these if
+,-,!, can be used?

I looked at the logic for +/- the other day (when I added E: and
D:, fwiw), and the logic was backward, IIRC...I fixed it in 2.1,
but it may still be broken in 2.0.x, not sure...

Need to think about 1& 2 some more but:
3. There was a suggestion to allow the use of "!" to disable a
profile.
So the
command line would look like: mvn -P!myProfile
This seems more intuitive than the current syntax using a dash,
and I
created
MNG-3571 for it. But I'm hesitant to add it since we can
already use
"-" for
this, and it looks like "mvn -P D:myProfile" was added as another
option for
disabling a profile in 2.1.
As far as I know, the - never worked so going to ! is better...I
think
the 2.1 deactivation should be brought in line as well...we don't
need
more proliferation of changes.
