Hi, even though I'm not a guru at all I have had the same task - a project with subprojects and subsubprojects. I use the reactor too: one reactor (r1) to build all the subprojects and another one (r2) in each subproject which contain subsubprojects. So the 'reactor inside reactor' works fine.
When maven starts you can see on the output: "starting the reactor our processing order ..." and than it lists the processing order of the projects this reactor (r1) is generating and starts to build them one after another. When the project with the second reactor (r2) is reached it processes its reactor (r2) and again you will see the output of the processing order of the subsubprojects: "starting the reactor our processing order.." After finishing it continues to process the subprojects of reactor r1. Maven recursivly goes through the subprojects and if necessary the subsubprojects. I hope the explanation was not to confused, is helping a bit and answered your question.
