Can you show the actual error message and give a concrete project? Normally Maven works with not specifying target/source as long as your JDK is recent enough. (But it's not ways a good idea, it's better to specify the properties (IDEs normally read them)

Ok, so as I just used a simple editor and a terminal it didn't mattered wich version I compiled with or for in the past as I ran the class with the same vm I compiled them with. So, the I thought I could just ommit the setting - but maven just fails with an error that no source/target version was specified. So I had them re-add by re-apply the project settings. Is there a way I could tell the compiler plugin just to ignore the version but also to ignore if it's missing and just compile it with whatever version I ran maven with? It's basically: I use different systems all with different jdk installed - so when just clone the most recent version from github I always have to set the correct version manual as netbeans doesn't seem to be handle that by itself - and I could find an option to just get rid of it at all.
