Theres also the issue of specifying the "version" of the
remote-resources-plugin - which in previous discussions people
objected to. Please Note this is not configuring commons-parent to
*use* that plugin - but just to specify the version number *if* a
component does use it. I don't mind it going in and it has no impact
unless components use it. Does anyone still have a problem with doing
this? Also are there any other changes people think should be made
before trying to release commons-parent-7?
I have no particular problem with it, apart from the fact that I find
it pointless.
If there is some code that actually uses the plugin, then that makes
sense. This code might be contained in some profile, in other words,
not used unless explicitly requested. But just to fix a version
number? What for?
Because Dennis wants it and if it causes no issues, then its one less
thing to disagree on.

But its one more thing to maintain (and update versions, and trigger a
pom release etc. -- as an aside, the number of Maven related releases
may have exceeded component releases in the recent past).
We don't have to use the latest versions if we don't want to. If we are
happy with version 1.0 we can stick with that for ever and ever, without
the need to update commons-parent.
The number of Maven related release will decrease over time, once we
have settled in on how we want to do all things Maven.
Also, it
isn't adding much value given recent discussions and the current state
of its implementation, metadata etc. IMO.
See my comment to Jochen.
I don't think of this as having more or less things to disagree on,
but we've had a long discussion and the reservations expressed by more
than one of us have been well articulated therein, IMO.
There has been misunderstandings in said discussions regarding this. I
suggest that you read what Niall wrote in the first mail of this thread
once more, as he summed up the implications of the change nicely.
