I'm not honestly sure if its a bug or not... It really depends on how
the versions are specified in the various poms. You can use
<version>[1.1.3]</version> to lock-in a specific version; its possible
the acegi pom specifies this explicitly, so Maven will not
automatically upgrade all your spring artifacts to the 1.2.4 release
as you might hope/expect.

You'll need to do more research into these specific artifacts to
figure out what's going on... And then perhaps file as a bug, if
necessary.

Thx, I thought so.  Do you see this as a defect, or is this the way
things are supposed to work?  I have no problems logging this as a
defect (if that is what it is) and manipulating the pom file as a work
around.  My concern is how many times will this I have to do this
(rhetorical question).  So I guess what I am asking is, is this really a
bug?
