Gabriele, I think isolating dependencies is a good idea, just not sure if BOM is the right choice.
According to Maven's documentation [1], BOMs are primarily for versioning your own library's modules as a cohesive set, not just for managing external dependencies. The docs state: "Imports are most effective when used for defining a 'library' of related artifacts that are generally part of a multi project build." So while BOMs do include external dependencies, their main purpose is ensuring all modules of a framework/library (like KIE modules) ship with consistent versions together. - Alex [1] https://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-dependency-mechanism.html#bill-of-materials-bom-poms On Sat, Sep 27, 2025 at 3:17 PM Gabriele Cardosi <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi all, > about the issue of the clashing versions, I would like to remind you all > that the proposal made by Paolo Bizzarri [1] would have solved that once > and for all, months ago, and it won't even be a big effort, if I remember > correctly. > Instead, that discussion ended in nothing, polluted by unrelated questions > and discussion. > Maybe a good time to fix that problem finally, instead of wasting time for > other workarounds ? > > [1] https://lists.apache.org/thread/qpt59fn2jhyjkg4c2v15sjrrc2624wc8 > > Regards > > Gabriele > > > > Il giorno sab 27 set 2025 alle ore 18:49 Tiago Bento <[email protected]> > ha scritto: > > > Hi Alex, > > > > Thanks for creating this thread.
