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.
