Jean-Charles Meyrignac commented on MNG-2569:
---------------------------------------------
I was building Selenium, and found that I could propagate automatically the
version number as follows:
<parent>
<groupId>org.openqa.selenium</groupId>
<version>${SeleniumVersion}</version>
<artifactId>selenium-rc</artifactId>
</parent>
This worked on Maven 2.0.4, but doesn't with 2.0.6.
Alas, I was forced to upgrade due to maven-assembly-plugin, version
2.2-beta-2-SNAPSHOT, which forces the use of 2.0.6.
