Hi, As you might know, running the Sling ITs with Java 9 is blocked by an incompatibility of the maven-antrun-plugin with Java 9 ([1], [2]).
It seems that a solution is not yet agreed on and I'd like to start running the ITs on Java 9 sooner rather than later. To that end, I've written a tiny Maven plugin which does exactly what the maven-antrun-plugin snippet did [3]. TBH, I never really liked scripting in the pom but that's another issue :-) Anyway, my proposal is to drop the maven-antrun-plugin _only_ for setting the project properties in the parent pom. Bertrand rightly mentioned that we have other usages all over Sling, but those do not affect running the ITs and I won't touch them. Thoughts?
