Its a common pattern when you want to create distros that span/collect artifacts from multiple modules. I think that will be least m2 fighting, and once its there lets stare at it and see if there are better ideas. > +1 on the examples/sample apps - fun part is how to try and overlap > that with Cactus.

For example, Shale has a parent pom and an apps parent pom (I suspect Struts has similar, haven't looked recently). We can have a taglibs-examples parent that each of the war modules inherit from (and it in turn inherits from taglibs-parent). We can then define the Cactus and other common bits in there. -Rahul > Hen > > On Sat, Jan 10, 2009 at 11:32 AM, Rahul Akolkar <rahul.akol...@gmail.com> > wrote: >> I'm planning on moving the RDC taglib to m2 this weekend.
