        <!-- include profile myfaces12 -->
        <jsf>myfaces12</jsf>
       <!-- include profile richfaces -->
        <richfaces>true</richfaces>

'mvn -Pdefault eclipse:eclipse'  should create a tomcat6, myfaces12, richfaces project
'mvn -Pdevel eclipse:eclipse'  should create a tomcat5, myfaces12, richfaces project
'mvn -Pproductiv eclipse:eclipse'  should create a jboss, myfaces12, richfaces project
....

any ideas?
