Actually, now that we have forked out of the egit.git repository, I want to refactor the layout of the JGit project to be more maven like, and have a proper top-level pom to build things.

Unfortunately it seems that nobody can program a proper Maven pom for a multi-project project unless they are one of the authors of Maven itself. I watched the Apache MINA team struggle with it until the Maven guys wanted to use their code, and fixed their build.

So, this refactoring is waiting for a Maven guru to contribute an improvement. Unfortunately they are all busy...

So, to answer your original question, yes, we should make this better, and patches are welcome. My own Maven-fu is just not up to the task.
