Kenneth Knowles commented on BEAM-3462:
---------------------------------------
This pertains only to maven, I think. We no longer have that, so I'm happy to
close. Something might be similar in our generated poms, but it is less
important.

> We never really needed a parent pom-only module in each directory. It is just
> a distraction and obfuscates our configuration. It stems partly from the idea
> that directories "inherit" from their parents, which is not required or
> necessarily desirable. With a couple exceptions, like global dependency
> pinning, we should compose configurations instead of inheriting them.
