Armin,
I did not know about profiles.xml, but this does not meet my
requirements. Since I used Continuum on a different server in
addition to developers on Windows and Unix machine, the use of
symbolic links will not work.
Indeed, my suggestion is not helpful in your particular case. The idea
of having a "central" profile resource available in a development
community sounds interesting to me. Maybe, you should formulate an
improvement to maven such as being able to access a network wide profile
resource via URL.
Good luck.

I am finding that profiles are very powerful. As I make more use of
them across projects, many of which are unrelated, I find myself
copying a profile from one POM to another. Placing profiles in a

in the POM will prompt a release cycle of the POM and every project
that extends the POM.
Thus my question, is their a way of importing a profile from another
POM?
Hi Paul,
you don't need to import a profile. You can store it in a separate
file called profiles.xml, located in the same directory as your
pom.xml. Maven automatically looks for this file. If you work with an
UNIX OS, you probably know symbolic links, so locating a single
profiles.xml at a particular place and pointing to it from every
module directory is very easy.
