Re: [jira] Created: (GERONIMO-4271) Allow plugins with dependencies on older geronimo 2.1.* components to install on Geronimo 2.1.3

[Donald Woods]

Do we need to update the release process to remind us to update these entries for future 2.1.x releases?

             Project: Geronimo
          Issue Type: Improvement
      Security Level: public (Regular issues)
    Affects Versions: 2.1.3
            Reporter: Joe Bohn

Currently plugins that have version specific dependencies on other components 
cannot be install in a later Geronimo version.  For example, a sample built 
with dependencies on Geronimo 2.1.2 components can not be installed in a 
2.1.3-SNAPSHOT server.  We can enable this support by including artifact-alias 
entries for 2.1, 2.1.1, and 2.1.2 components that map to the 2.1.3-SNAPSHOT 
equivalent component.  When we release Geronimo 2.1.3 these alias entries will 
be updated accordingly.
