Maven subprojects

A raw workaround, and work directly on a parent pom.xml into an eclipse workspace:

• create workspace
• create parent project
• copy files/directories, overwriting (subdirectories)
• import thru "Existing Maven Projects", and select parent project

however, it doesn't work as expected... I think the copy to directories is wrong, and only it should be a reference to the origin.

UPDATE1: In the end, there is a quick difference as workaround: just import directly the parent pom.xml
