-----------------------------------------

Hi Sylvain,

I see your point, and I think this indeed might also occur with our development 
cycle. Of course you could add 'overwrite' parameters, like 
"-DholdbackModule=module1,module2 -DreleaseModule=module3,module4" but I don't 
think that's a pretty solution. It would be workable though.

Anyway, maybe we should switch from an aggregate project structure to a project 
that includes the other modules (components) as dependencies. That way, we 
would also have control over which version of a component is in a release to a 
target environment. Since components can be generic and be released to multiple 
target environments, maybe this is the way to go for us.

> I would like to prepare a release for multi-modules project.
> I would create tags for all the modules and modify poms.
> Not only the versionId in the pom but also the eventual dependencies between 
> all the modules.
> Indeed, if a module A has a dependency to module B, the version will be 
> updated.
> The dependency management is a hard task in multi modules project and this 
> feature would be really appreciated.
