Yes, there is another option to add or merge the two projects. You can use the Maven Dependency Mechanism to add the second project as a dependency to the first. This will allow you to reference the second project from the first, and will enable you to reuse code from the second project in the first. To do this, you will need to add a <dependency> element to the first project's POM file, with the coordinates of the second project.
