OK, so that makes sense to me. I had no idea that there was a checks
profile - now I know.

I've seen these goals in the CXF POMs before and just figured that
they were CXF-specfiic. So are fastinstall and setup.eclipse
specifically for CXF or are they profiles in Maven? I like the idea of
the setup.eclipse profile because I just created an Eclipse code
convention profile and I was looking at using the Checkstyle and PMD
Eclipse plugins as well.
