Thanks Tim,
I hadn't considered activating a profile using multiple properties.
If it were possible, then I think it might work.
But
<activation>
<property>
<name>dev</name>
<name>prod</name>
</property>
</activation>
Is not valid syntax for the POM schema

Hi,
No, this is currently not possible directly. However, what you can do is
activate the set of profile via a system property you specify on the
commandline ('mvn -Ddev ...'):
<profiles>
<profile>
<id>dev</id>
<activation>
<property>
<name>dev</name>
</property>
</activation>
...
</profile>
<profile>
<id>prod</id>
<activation>
<property>
<name>prod</name>
</property>
</activation>
...
</profile>
<profile>
<id>common</id>
<activation>
<property>
<name>dev</name>
<name>prod</name>
</property>
</activation>
...
</profile>
</profiles>
