Hi all,

the Maven Profile Management UI from JBoss Tools has now been included in
the latest m2e 1.5 dev build[1], available from [2] (compatible with Kepler
and Luna). It will be embedded with the next Luna M6 packages.

Here's how it works :

Rather than right-clicking on a project, going to the Properties > Maven
page, then manually (mis)typing a list of active or disabled profile, you
just use the Ctrl+Alt+P shortcut to open the new Maven Profile selection
interface.

The new interface is also accessible from the Maven contextual menu :
Right-click on project > Maven > Select Maven Profiles...

The list of available profiles is inferred from profiles defined in :
 * the project pom.xml
 * the project's parent hierarchy
 * user and global maven settings.xml

When several projects are selected, only the common available profiles are
displayed for selection. Common profiles are profiles defined in
settings.xml or profiles having the same id in different pom.xml.
