> Properties in an imported pom are resolved in the inheritance chain of the 
> import itself and can only be overridden via de commandline. The attached 
> example project demonstrates the problem.
> Layout:
>  * {{test-parent}} defines 3 modules and a property for the slf4j version.
>  * {{test-parent-bom}} has {{dependencyManagement}} for slf4j using the 
> version from its parent.
>  * {{test-parent-base}} imports {{test-parent-bom}}
>  * {{test-parent-project}} has {{test-parent-base}} as parent, changes the 
> value of the property and declares a {{dependency}} on slf4j
> The overridden property value does not take effect. However, if specified on 
> the commandline (via {{-Dtopicus.version.org.slf4j=1.7.11}}) it does, even 
> when running mvn inside {{project}} (after running mvn install in the root):
> {code}
> # mvn dependency:tree
> [INFO] --- maven-dependency-plugin:2.8:tree (default-cli) @ 
> test-parent-project ---
> [INFO] nl.topicus.onderwijs.test:test-parent-project:jar:1.0-SNAPSHOT
> [INFO] \- org.slf4j:slf4j-api:jar:1.7.12:compile
> {code}
> {code}
> # mvn dependency:tree -Dtopicus.version.org.slf4j=1.7.11
> [INFO] --- maven-dependency-plugin:2.8:tree (default-cli) @ 
> test-parent-project ---
> [INFO] nl.topicus.onderwijs.test:test-parent-project:jar:1.0-SNAPSHOT
> [INFO] \- org.slf4j:slf4j-api:jar:1.7.11:compile
> {code}
> I would expect properties in a pom to override properties from imported poms.
