   @nacx Thx for the link.
   
   The build runs without using the following declaration.
   ```
   <parent>
       <groupId>org.apache</groupId>
       <artifactId>apache</artifactId>
       <version>14</version>
       <relativePath />
     </parent>
   ```
   
   I have a question about the parent declaration; git says it got added in 
2013 / 14 before it was an apache project. More modern versions are available. 
Is this a requirement of an Apache Project using this parent declaration, or is 
this optional? I have no problem with keeping it for now, but in the future, 
the maven setup found in the repository should describe the necessary tools and 
settings for a build. Because maybe the project likes to be compatible with 
more modern JDKs, new profiles are required, and side effects from upstream 
projects declarations have to be avoided.
   
   Thx!
