Robert Scholte commented on MNG-6806: ------------------------------------- Main target are plugin and extension writers.

So if the maven-pom doesn't have a parent, we could use it in the reactor too. > Provide Maven BOM > ----------------- > > Key: MNG-6806 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6806 > Project: Maven > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Robert Scholte > Priority: Major > Labels: up-for-grabs > Fix For: 3.7.0-candidate > > > Maven libraries should always have the same version to ensure they work as > expected, hence the preferred way to manage that is with a bom. > Let's introduce the maven-bom. > See https://www.baeldung.com/spring-maven-bom about how to write and use the > bom. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
