Description

When a pom.xml defines a property, such as

<properties>
<name>java.language.version</name><value>1.6</value>
</properties>

then the project info reports uses the property name for the 'Document' label of the Javadoc report
in site/project-reports.html

i.e. the generated HTML is

file:///U:/dev/maven-bugs/MPIR-javadoc/target/site/apidocs/index.html

<tr class="b"><td><a href="apidocs/index.html">java.language.version</a></td>
<td>JavaDoc API documentation.</td>

Your syntax for properties is wrong. It should be like this:

<properties>
  <java.language.version>1.6</java.language.version>
</properties>

Thanks for the clarification. I referred to http://maven.apache.org/pom.html#Properties which is misleading - it does not document the syntax for properties but says "Maven properties are value placeholder, like properties in Ant." so I mistakenly assumed Ant syntax, and the other examples in <activation> which use

<property>
<name>mavenVersion</name>
<value>2.0.3</value>
</property>
syntax.

I'll submit a doc bug report.
