Maybe...Depends on what you mean by "a module of that parent." If you
mean
<modules>
<module>...</module>
<module>...</module>
</modules>
then I think not. I think it means that every POM that wants to use the
same common stuff would include something like:
<parent>
<groupId>my.groupId</groupId>
<artifactId>build.master</artifactId>
<version>1.0.0.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
<relativePath>../build.master</relativePath>
</parent>

That means making every new project a module of that parent. Ugh.
