> The default behavior of ant:copy is to *not* overwrite files if an newer file exists. However, when war dependencies are included and merged (see MPWAR-41), this means that resources of this project might be overriden by resources from an included war file (which is counterintuitive:  project resources should override all included files if they overlap)
> The line to change is
>   <ant:copy todir="${maven.war.webapp.dir}" preservelastmodified="true" overwrite="true">
