Ron, * finding all POMs is not that simple in our case as we have at least 20 SVN repositories with multiple projects and about 100 git repositories. * POMs are XML but a lot of projects have at least DEPARTMENT_POM -> TEAM_POM -> PROJECT_POM -> MODULE_POM relations, so we have to lookup stuff in Artifactory anyway. * I think I will implement a goal `display-ancestors` in the versions-maven-plugin :-).
