yes, I was too lazy to touch nearly every POM file in our repository just to increase the version number of our parent POMs. I haven't done this for the last release either and AFAICT, no problem occurred.

Hmmm, find, xargs and sed should do this work within one minute. :-)

it's a bit more difficult but in general yes.

Actually we already have such a script (tools/pom-updater) but still I always managed to break the build.

Does anybody know if it can cause problems if the development version number isn't increased after a release?

I would say that it's at least confusing. So how does this work now? We have a new version of parent pom but we reference to the old one. Which version is chosen finally?

All our POMs in snapshot mode refer to the (not-changing) cocoon-parent POM.

After writing this I see the potential problem: If we want to use some of our own modules in their released versions, they would pull in the released cocoon-parent POM. This could lead to some unwanted side-effects.

This means that if we want to use released versions of our own modules, we have to increase the version number of cocoon-parent and should follow Carsten's proposal and remove all intermediary POMs (tools-modules, blocks-modules) except core-modules.
