             Summary: Doc about filtering incorrect about macros rules
                 Key: MSITE-708
                 URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MSITE-708
             Project: Maven Site Plugin
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Benson Margulies


http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-site-plugin/examples/creating-content.html#filtering claims that you can't put dots in properties. You can. ${project.version} works just fine.

It would also be helpful to note 

{noformat}
#set( $dollar = '$' )
...
${dollar}{bt.root.directory}
{noformat}

as useful when writing doc _about_ properties.

Can anyone explain why the doc makes this claim about '.'s before I just remove it?
