[jira] Commented: (MNG-4060) Remove support for profiles.xml

["Will Horn (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4060?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=175461#action_175461 ] 

Will Horn commented on MNG-4060:
--------------------------------

Is there any documentation about this change?  I don't see any here or in the commit log to explain the reason or the suggested alternatives.  My use case of profiles.xml is to separate certain project settings out of the pom.   These are mostly properties that change regularly from user to user and should not be committed to version control (e.g. custom output directory, build number).
