Sounds interesting, but it's rather hard to achieve. First it would require multi-level POM inheritance. At the momen Maven supports only sinle level of inheritance. Second it would require intelligent merging of dependencies: at this moment declaring any dependencies in the child project discards all inforamtion about parent project's dependencies. I believe that Maven will support both of these things in the future (post 1.0, definetely). When they are in place you could have: defaluts.xml (distributed with maven, contains deps on known good | plugins at the time of the release) | V common.xml (settings for the whole project) | | V project.xml (settings for a particular module) R. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
