Sylvain MariƩ commented on MRELEASE-252:
----------------------------------------

To Stijn: I don't understand how moving an aggregate project to a project with 
dependencies could do the trick.. You would probably need to update things by 
hand then ? 

To Moshe: very interesting point. In such case I thought I would not release Y 
because from a code point of view it is the same. However for people compiling 
against it, it prevents transitive dependency to go and pick your new release 
of X so you might want to release it too to ensure that people benefit from new 
version of X. 

> Seems the only way is to specify what modules to release. 

I totally agree. Now the question is, how ? I suggest 4 ways to do it in a 
previous post ( 16/Jan/09, suggestions a),b),c),d)). Do you have other ideas ?
