Now that 2.0.5 is out and more frequent releases are expected, I think that http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2423 is even more important. Currently the prerequisites value is not inherited and thus we can't use it in a company "super-pom" to enforce a minimum Maven version. My workaround is to create an empty plugin that has a prereq and include that in the super-pom. This seems kludgey an kind of unnecessary since there is a field in the pom to do this...it just only applies if defined in each child pom or when building from a reactor that contains it. Is there any chance this can get bumped to 2.0.6? I'm willing to try and submit a patch I could get a pointer where to look.
Thanks, Brian
