Description

This dependency:
<!-- Fake dependency to test loading configuration files from a JAR -->
<dependency>
<id>resources</id>
<version>1.0</version>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

kills Maven 2 because of the transitive nature of Maven2. Maven2 if it has a dependency on a project
gets all its dependencies as well. So resources of course doesn't exist and fails. Now, currently the
Maven2 POM is created FROM the maven1 POM.
http://www.ibiblio.org/maven2/commons-configuration/commons-configuration/1.1/commons-
configuration-1.1.pom

We need to either add a Maven2 pom, or just create a fake resources.jar, but in the commons-
configuration groupId.
