Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-6629:
--------------------------------------

A problem with the approach in my patch is that it doesn't (yet) support some 
exclusions that are in the pom template.

> versions of dependencies should be specified in a single place

> Currently the Maven POM file is generated from a template file that includes 
> the versions of all the libraries we depend on.  The versions of these 
> libraries are also present in ivy/libraries.properties, so that, when a 
> library is updated, it must be updated in two places, which is error-prone.  
> We should instead only specify library versions in a single place.
