> Today, Maven only offers a single classifier to adress the problem of 
> generating different flavours of an artifact such as dev and prod versions of 
> an EAR, but most of the time, this is not enough, you have a prod version 
> which is distributed, a prod version which is not, a dev version which is 
> distributed and a dev version which is not ...
> With current classifiers, you can only put one classifier on an artifact, so 
> if the artifact is already marked with a 'prod' classifier, you cannot add a 
> 'distributed' one.
> Vincent Massol already submitted an idea in MNG-2596 which would address that 
> limitation by adding support for multiple classifiers on a single artifact. 
> In MNG-2649, I propose an alternative solution (which is not necessarily 
> incompatible btw) by adding support for a list of properties to artifacts.
> Regards,

> PS: I submitted two different issues to separate the problem from the 
> solution (MNG-2649) ;)
