XBean contains a series of parallel projects that seem to build support
for various specific versions of Spring, however because of this you
can't just switch the root dependency to 2.0.x as the 1.x sub-projects
won't build.
Yeah, I'm aware of this - what I'm questioning is the fact that a root
dep for Spring is defined at all. It seems to me that because each
module varies as to whether it supports Spring 1.2.x vs. 2.x then each
module should define it's own dep instead of a defining a root dep.
I'm sure Guillaume can add some clarity to this situation by
explaining the reason for the root dep on Spring 1.2.x.
