Robert Scholte commented on MENFORCER-241:
------------------------------------------
This was actually duplicated by MENFORCER-360. Having the same request on
different rules to get the same result is a sign for me that this should be
solved in a separate rule, something like {{requireDependencyVersionPolicy}}
> DependencyConverge - allow ignoring minor and patch level mismatches

> sometimes it is acceptable to allow some degree of version mismatches. For
> instance, if an artifact follows [semantic versioning
> rules|http://semver.org/] it is acceptable to allow patch level mismatches
> (bug fixes) or even minor level mismatches (added backward compatible
> functionality).
> This new feature could somehow replace the current {{uniqueVersions}} flag
> which pretty much does the same thing to a lesser degree
