> Currently m2 pom require to have explicit version of the parent pom in all 
> submodules. This should work fine for "standalone" artifacts. However there 
> is different type of projects (e.g. EAR) that is usually stored in version 
> control as a whole thing and may contain multiple modules (ejb jars, rar, 
> war, etc) that are build with the same version as entire EAR. So, EAR 
> application released with a single global version for all submodules. In m1 
> this was possible to specify relative path to parent pom and use version 
> substitution in child modules and deployer goal was substituting values for 
> version numbers upon deployment.
> For this kind of modules it is very important to have single palce that will 
> have global version number, which then used for submodules. It is also make 
> sense to kee optional relative path (that can be also removed/replaced with 
> concrete parent id/version upon deployment) to support local build. I believe 
> this is very important for J2EE builds as well as any other projects that are 
> releasing multiple artifacts/jars under the same version  (e.g. ASM, XDoclet).
