Hi all,
I have asked the same question in Thread "[m2] parent pom", but nobody has 
answered, so usually it was going under ;-) 
I cannot belive, that I am the only one who's missing something like that!

The multi Project mechanismus is ok for real submodules, that never used in 
another context. Because the submodules must have a 
reference to the parent. 

I miss a possibility to define processGroups. (Using submodules without ONE 
parent.)

Example: 
module A depends on module D 
module B depends on module D 
module D depends on module C 

So if i develop module A and A,B,C are SNAPSHOT'S I want to call compile, 
package, install... on a process/develop Group: 

<processGroup> 
  <dependency> 
      <groupId>myGroup</groupId> 
      <artifactId>moduleA</artifactId> 
      <version>1.o-SNAPSHOT</version> 
      <scope>compile</scope> 
    </dependency> 
  <dependency> 
      <groupId>myGroup</groupId> 
      <artifactId>moduleB</artifactId> 
      <version>1.o-SNAPSHOT</version> 
      <scope>compile</scope> 
    </dependency> 
  <dependency> 
      <groupId>myGroup</groupId> 
      <artifactId>moduleD</artifactId> 
      <version>1.o-SNAPSHOT</version> 
      <scope>compile</scope> 
    </dependency> 
</processGroup> 

This is a small Example, the dependencies could be much more complex ;-) 
So a thing like a processGroup may be a very great way to save me time. 
Ok. i can write an shell or ant script doing that, but it would be nice if 
maven can do something like that. 
Do you understand me?
