This is ultimately the same conclusion everyone (except the maven guys) seems to come to. Unfortunately, it doesn't work. See http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1577.


Good point, but this is only a matter of time when it get fixed.

AFAIK, we want to have independence between blocks. If this is the case, then we cannot use a <dependencyManagement> in a top level. I thought this was the initial reason why we don't use it.


Was it? IIUC a block remains independant, if <dependencyManagement> is used in one of it's parent POMs. Jorg, do you know more?

Suppose you want to develop jst the block without the need to download the whole cocoon code. Will not be possible if we link it to the whole project.

If you use the <parent> element, Maven automatically downloads the parent pom in the background, doesn't it?
