Well, I'd like to "improve" rather the "dependencies" element:
<dependencyManagement>
<dependencies>
<dependency groupId="javax.activation" artifactId="activation"
version="1.1"/>
</dependencies>
<dependencies groupId="org.apache.maven.archiva" version="1.1-SNAPSHOT">
<dependency artifactId="archiva-applet"/>
<dependency artifactId="archiva-artifact-converter"/>
<dependency artifactId="archiva-artifact-reports"/>
<dependency artifactId="archiva-common"/>
<dependency artifactId="archiva-test" type="test-jar" scope="test"/>
</dependencies>
</dependencyManagement>
i.e. inherit the attributes from the surrounding dependencies tag (with the
possibility to override them).
