The source encoding is not specified in the root pom.xml, which can cause maven to bail out because the build becomes platform dependent

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
- simply build the source on a machine whose default encoding isn't UTF-8. Due 
to "bad" characters in the source code, maven will fail to compile.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
It should compile but instead I get:

ANSI_X3.4-1968, i.e. build is platform dependent!

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
compiling branch mss_2x (assume it is same on master). Cent OS 5

Please provide any additional information below.
Fix simply by specifying the source encoding to make the build not platform 
dependent.

Could this one be merged into the mss_2x branch as well?
