> The documentation of the element parent.relativePath in the XSD file seems to 
> be wrong or outdated. It says: 
> "Maven looks for the parent pom first in the reactor of currently building 
> projects, then in this location on the filesystem, then the local repository, 
> and lastly in the remote repo." 
> (Source: http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd)
> But the actual documentation of maven says
> "Maven looks for the parent POM first in this location on the filesystem, 
> then the local repository, and lastly in the remote repo."
> (Source: 
> http://maven.apache.org/ref/3.0.3/maven-model/apidocs/org/apache/maven/model/Parent.html#getRelativePath%28%29)
> I have tested it on my local and I have seen the behavior as described in the 
> second source, i.e. maven does not look for the parent pom in the reactor of 
> currently building projects first.
> So this is pretty misleading. It is even more misleading for us, as we are 
> reading the documentation directly from eclipse, which loads it from the XSD 
> file.
> Could you please correct the XSD documentation?
