Alexander Wagner commented on MNG-2199: --------------------------------------- I can agree with Joost den Boer. And it becomes more complex if you have not only one master pom but rather a few like special master poms for differend types of projects. > Version ranges not supported for parent artifacts > ------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MNG-2199 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2199 > Project: Maven 2 & 3 > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Inheritance and Interpolation, POM, Reactor and workspace > Affects Versions: 2.0.3 > Reporter: Christian Schulte > Fix For: 3.x (to be reviewed) > > > It would be great if Maven supports version ranges when specifying parent > artifacts in a multi-module build.
