 **edit:**
+
 work is stalled, since the xmlparser (hard-xml) does not allow xml entities that are not known upfront, ie the <properties> element has them for every property.
 I don't even think it should support them and/or the regular java libs like jaxb would do that.
 So ... thinking of forking, but the code is really hard (declarative macro's) and not documented...
 
+(background, we need to parse maven xml to be able to use remote maven repositories)
