Improved project layout.
> Maven 3.0.3 fails to use relativePath for parent pom location.
> --------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: MNG-5086
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-5086
> Project: Maven 2 & 3
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 3.0.3
> Environment: Windows 7
> Reporter: Ryan J
> Assignee: Benjamin Bentmann
> Attachments: maven-dependency-grouping-2.rar,
> maven-dependency-grouping.zip

> After updating to Maven 3.0.3 I've noticed it fails to use the 'relativePath'
> I've specified in the 'parent' section of my POMs. The
> [documentation|http://maven.apache.org/ref/3.0.3/maven-model/maven.html#class_parent]
> states:
> {quote}
> Maven looks for the parent POM first in this location on the filesystem, then
> the local repository, and lastly in the remote repo.
> {quote}
> However, this does not appear to be the case. I'll attach an example project
> (please excuse the inaccurate name). To reproduce:
> 1) Go to the *group* module and run {{mvn clean install}}
> 2) Go to the *moduleA* module and run {{mvn compile}}
> Step one should install the modules *depends*, *moduleB* and *group* to the
> local repository. The *maven-dependency-grouping* module will _not_ be
> installed to the local repository. At step two, *moduleA* should compile,
> but fails with the (partial) error:
> {quote}
> Could not find artifact
> maven-dependency-grouping:maven-dependency-grouping:pom:0.1-SNAPSHOT in...
> {quote}
> According to the documentation, the above dependency should get resolved via
> the 'relativePath' specified in the 'parent' element of the POM. Maven 2.2.1
> behaves correctly when repeating the above steps.
