First, <inherited>true</inherited> is the default! Second, the default behaviour is for <configuration>s to be *merged* - hence configuration.filesets.fileset.directory=logs in the parent is overridden by configuration.filesets.fileset.directory=lib in the child. Try <configuration combine.children="append"> - not tested, but I think that'll do what you want. Max.
