Resource inheritance isn't additive
-----------------------------------

                 Key: MNG-2751
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2751
             Project: Maven 2
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Inheritance and Interpolation
    Affects Versions: 2.0.4
         Environment: All
            Reporter: Jason Melnick


I have an inheritance model as such:

Parent_POM (General dependencyManagement, pluginManagement, etc)
|-->Base_POM (global dependency inclusion, default goal, default plugins, etc)
     |-->Artifact_POM (declares specific artifact type functionality, 
resources, profiles, etc)
          |-->Project_POM (project specific dependencies, resources, etc)

I am attempting to create an hierarchy that will enable a new project to get up 
and running with very little modification. The issue I am having is if 
build.resources are declared in the Project_POM they are wiping the 
Artifact_POM's declarations.

I think that resources should always be additive. If nothing else add an 
<inherited> tag a la the plugin element's <inherited> tag. In lieu of that 
perhaps a resourceManagement section that exposes resource id's that could be 
selectively added by the child...
