My personal opinion is that ide project files are personal and they never add to a scm repository because each developer can work with his preferred ide.
But if you have a correct patch that satisfy everyone, I can apply it.

        Key: MPJBUILDER-8
    Summary: generate-project goal does not generate relative paths
       Type: Bug

     Status: Open
   Priority: Minor

 Original Estimate: Unknown
 Time Spent: Unknown
  Remaining: Unknown

    Project: maven-jbuilder-plugin

Environment: All platforms

Description:
A JBuilder project file created by JBuilder stores paths relative to the project file's directory, unless the path is on a different root. The jbuilder-maven plugin always stores absolute paths. Relative paths are stored so that if the whole project, JPX and source, is checked in to a Version Control System and another user pulls the project to another machine, the path references will continue to work.

For example, I pulled Jelly into c:\Documents and Settings\coverbeck\jbproject\jelly, and ran maven jbuilder:generate-project. For the outpath, the generated JPX file had:

<property name="OutPath" category="sys" value="C:\Documents and Settings\coverbeck\jbproject\jelly/target/classes">
  </property> 

If I manually create the same setting with the JBuilder GUI when the JPX is located in C:\Documents and Settings\coverbeck\jbproject\jelly, the resulting JPX will have:

<property name="OutPath" category="sys" value="target/classes">
  </property>

DefaultPath, DocPath, SourcePath, and TestPath all have the same issue.
