We need to push down dependency version declarations to the > nar levels where appropriate. > there have been reported issues of defects happening due to us using much > newer versions (or sometimes older) of dependencies due to this dependency > management model. By pushing declarations down to the proper scope each > nar/etc.. can use the specific versions of components it needs and we'll stop > introducing issues by forcing a different version. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
