------------------------------------

You can use scope = import today for many cases.

> The idea to manage project independent templates is not new. But it is not possible to do this with maven and neither inheritance nor the dependency mechanism is enough.
> The include mechnism would include the requested pom (including ist parent poms) as if the containing elements where part of the current pom. Thus allowing to use every available pom mechanism. On conflict local pom settings wins.
> Very useful and needed to reduce redundancy between different projects!
