Well, we put all the versions in the parent pom. It makes the versions easy to change from the project's perspective. You don't have to browse through many files to see where the dependency is declared. Also, two or more of the sub-project may have a dependency on a same artifact, and if you put the version in the parent pom, you have the version in only one place.
