Hi all

no comments from developers on this ? 

About the pom's installed with mvn install:

I think now that it is correct that properties are not
resolved, as the properties are also in the pom, they
should only be resolved as needed.

But for the other points I still think that the Maven
Project Builder should use the properties.
