Would this parent POM be in project A or B, or would it be in its own Eclipse project that contains nothing but a pom.xml?
Wouldn't your suggested approach result in project A getting included as a project-dependency in project B, which isn't necessary? (There'd be a bidirectional relationship between project A and B?) When packaging project A, would project B's JAR be packaged and included, or would I add a separate dependency element just for that? Thanks.
