So which is it? ~~MNG-3545~~ comments say it is plus and minus. This issue says exclamation mark.

Currently it's both. You can use exclamation or minus to deactivate a profile.

Was there also a commit to update any documentation using the exclamation/plus/minus syntax?

The site was updated with a description of the ! syntax in this commit:
http://www.nabble.com/svn-commit%3A-r656894----maven-site-trunk-src-site-apt-guides-introduction-introduction-to-profiles.apt-ts17264759.html

I'll add something about the +/- syntax also.

Adding fix-for for both 2.0.10 and 2.1.0-M1, since 2.1.0-M1 will actually be released first and may not incorporate all of the eventual issue fixes released in 2.0.10.
