-------------------------------
Fix Version/s: (was: Issues to be reviewed for 3.x)
> alternative and higher level configuration option to <exlusions>
> ----------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MNG-3564
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3564
> Project: Maven
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: General
> Affects Versions: 2.0.9
> Reporter: manuel aldana
>
> maven provides scope (test, runtime etc.) to filter certain dependencies.
> never the less sometimes it is quite helpful to have a another configuration
> option, where you decide what to include transitively or what kind of
> dependency-set is relevant to your current project. using <exclusions>
> configuration to accomplish this is often very verbose, non-standard and is
> difficult to read (it is often not obvious what is meant with all these
> exclusions).
>
> as an example ivy includes such configuration meta-info approach (see
> http://ant.apache.org/ivy/m2comparison.html). this feature would be nice
> because when building releases one is more flexible.
