We could also add our own dependency to app with a range between 1.0.0 and 2.0.0, as it is done for the other dependencies.
Although I'm as wary of ranges as I am of exclusions… to be honest, I'd prefer simple fixed versions instead of ranges. Otherwise, your build tomorrow may not be the same as today (as we can see now). At least for a release, the versions should probably be fixed. There is a goal which might do that, but I didn't every try it so far [1] -- Richard [1] http://maven.apache.org/maven-release/maven-release-plugin/prepare-with-pom-mojo.html On 13.11.2013, at 15:42, Marshall Schor <m...@schor.com> wrote: > :-) > > Right...
