 There are a variety of parameters and options you can pass to maven to affect how it builds.  Some are listed in the topics below.  If you run `maven -g` you will get a huge list of options, separated into categories.  To use one, run "maven category:command", so to run the "compile" command in the "java" category, you'd run `maven java:compile` (and you can also add multiple commands to the command line).
 
-If you have common options you always want to pass to maven, you can put them in a file called `build.properties` either in the directory you run maven from (to affect only that project) or your home directory (to affect everything you run maven for).
+If you have common options you always want to pass to maven, you can put them in a file called `build.properties` either in the directory you run maven from (to affect only that project) or your home directory (to affect everything you run maven for).  See http://maven.apache.org/apidocs/constant-values.html for some common property names.
 
 For further reference on the available commands it may be a good idea to change into a subdirectory of incubator-geronimo/modules and have a look at the respective maven.xml files.
