Nabble removes some markup. Stop using Nabble or post the xml
somewhere where it will be readable. But I guess you're using the
configuration suggested by Zero Turnaround [1].

Is the plugin executed. You would see this in the console output. I
see no reason why it wouldn't be executed. No rebel.xml could be due
to something else.

You're confusing me. The "root pom" in a multi-module project
shouldn't produce a jar or a war.

This I don't understand. The plugin execution should be inherited. Is
you module inheriting from the parent pom where the plugin execution
is declared?
You could also check the effective-pom ("mvn help:effective-pom").
This is what Maven will be working on. Check that the plugin it is
declared there.

Although I find Zeroturnaround's documentation lacking lots of info
around this, it should work from a Maven perspective. But I don't know
if they do something special going on in the plugin.
Btw, I find it strange that Zeroturnaround's documentation suggest
that you execute "mvn jrebel:generate" (I would do "mvn install"). But
I don't know the workflow for using Jrebel so there might be some
reason to this.
