Is there any documentation available on how to best make use of the
Apache parent POM? Looking at it, I find many things that we've
replicated in project POM, so switching the using the parent more
would be a good idea. However, there are some properties and probably
some things that must be overridden (like the SCM stuff) and having
some guidelines would be great!
Up until now, it had been fairly self-explanatory, but there is a
comment in the top of the latest version to explain how to use the
release profile. The Maven development and release docs are the best
reference for those sections at the moment, as they apply equally to
other projects using it. You're right, the only thing that definitely
needs to be overridden is the SCM settings.
