Description

This is a new build system; the primary goal will be to not require any changes to existing ofbiz layouts(for backwards compatibility, at least initially).

These pom.xml files are completely new; the existing build.xml infrastructure will continue to exist. The existing build.xml will never call into maven(which is what processes the pom.xml), and maven will never call into build.xml either.

I have already committed a working pom.xml for the top level, and framework/start. Shortly, I will be adding framework/base and framework/entity, but into this branch.
