I'm not that familiar with Maven poms, so I'm not sure of the parent pom terminology. But a developer on my team uploaded this JAR to the Artifactory server, let the pom auto-generate, and then pasted in the license info for that module. As I understand it, this is the pom for the actual module/JAR (called "SecondString").
