Hi everyone,

Say I have a number of modules that share a dependency on Spring. I'd
like to centralize the version number of the Spring library that I'm
using, that is, the version these modules depend on. I.e. I don't want
the version number of the Spring dependency to be duplicated across
many pom files. What's the "maven way" for doing this?

We made a single POM that has Spring Hibernate, MySQL and Tomcat as dependencies with the "right" versions and gave that POM a version of its own. Now any project (we have 40+) that needs these libraries have a dependency on this one POM (as "provided" since we deploy it as part of the Tomcat lib)
This cuts the clutter by a lot and makes the project JAR much smaller.
