Maven profile properties

I am trying to get my profiles to use the properties specified by the
POM. Is this possible? I have a POM that looks like:

<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"
	xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
	xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0
http://maven.apache.org/maven-v4_0_0.xsd">
	...
	<properties>
		<script>scripts/myScript.js</script>
		<engine>ruby</engine>
	</properties>
     <profiles>
		<profile>
			<id>javascriptEngine</id>
			<activation>
				<property>
					<name>engine</name>
					<value>javascript</value>
				</property>
			</activation>
		</profile>
		<profile>
			<id>jrubyEngine</id>
			<activation>
				<property>
					<name>engine</name>
					<value>ruby</value>
				</property>
			</activation>
...

For some reason the jrubyEngine profile does not get activated. (I can
tell by which dependencies get copied) Do I have to use this syntax:
${project.properties.engine}?

Hi,

I want to create document templates and use Maven to fill in the
properties in the template during a task. For example:

Template.txt:

Dir=${basedir}
systemPath = ${systemPath}


Then run a maven command to output the the text document to a directory
and fill in these tokens. Sort of like filterTokens in Ant.

>From reading the documentation it looks like the
profile/activation/property only looks at system properties. Is it
possible to use a project property?
