Description

Maven profiles have been used to disable some part of the build and more specifically to disable tests running in wrong environments.
There's no good reason to disable build of any module.
For test disabling, using Assume is much more powerful : you can disable tests based on system capability.
Removing profiles make the build simpler and faster, two very desirable attributes of a build system.
