Based on your link, I don't need a profile but a (plugin) dependency to
antcontrib to use the <if> tag.
My POM will the look more and more like an ant script. Maven is supposed to
use profiles for such use cases. Why is there a limitation NOT to support
${basedir} property in profile activation ? I understand not supporting
custom properties (that can be set by profiles after activation), but not
for default properties.
I've created MNG-3140 for this...
