We're in the process of migrating from Maven 1 to Maven 2 so we'd prefer to leave the actual database connection in a database.properties file and reference those values in the pom. However, as far as I can tell you can only hard code properties in the properties section of the POM, you can't tell it to read properties from a .properties file?!
