This has been a point of debate. On one hand, it makes releasing a set of modules together easier. On the other hand, it forces a new version on your module even though you have no reason to require the new version yet.

When I try to release a multi-module project, the rewrite-for-development phase forgets to migrate dependency versions. For example : ## Before <project> <parent> <artifactId>vsi</artifactId> <groupId>vsi</groupId> <version>0.0.2-SNAPSHOT</version> </parent> <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion> <groupId>vsi</groupId> <artifactId>plugin-generator</artifactId> <name>Plugin generator</name> <version>0.0.2-SNAPSHOT</version> <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>vsi</groupId> <artifactId>canprovider-generator</artifactId> <version>0.0.2-SNAPSHOT</version> <scope>provided</scope> </dependency> </dependencies> </project> ## Rewrite for release phase : OK All 0.0.2-SNAPSHOT references are converted to 0.0.2, even for dependencies ## Rewrite for development Errors appear, since the plugin forget to convert again dependency versions !! Here is the result : <project> <parent> <artifactId>vsi</artifactId> <groupId>vsi</groupId> <version>0.0.3-SNAPSHOT</version> </parent> <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion> <groupId>vsi</groupId> <artifactId>plugin-generator</artifactId> <name>Plugin generator</name> <version>0.0.3-SNAPSHOT</version> <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>vsi</groupId> <artifactId>canprovider-generator</artifactId> <version>0.0.2</version> <scope>provided</scope> </dependency> </dependencies> </project> Is it a bug, or something is wrong in my multi-module configuration ?
