If you are planning to make this usable across many projects I would
suggest making a plugin. This is an easier form to make something
workable across projects. Not only can you share the plugin amongst your
projects but you can share it with everyone else too.
You can access a specific dependency using:
${pom.getDependencyPath('ejbgen')}
Given that 'ejbgen' is what you have listed as the dependencies id in
your POM.

The reactor in CVS cannot currently share a maven.xml file but I have
altered the reactor to do so. I will check everything in next week
sometime.

Yes, but _strongly_ recommend not using jelly in your project.xml file
except for variable interpolation.
