Have a look at dependency management (http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-dependency- mechanism.html).

For example, the pom could be like this: <dependency> <groupId>com.mycompany.ixaf</groupId> <artifactId>gw-plugin</artifactId> <version>${myversion}</version> </dependency> And the myversion parameter is controllable from the settings.xml file. The motivation is that if we have a multi-module build in maven with all the different modules using the same 'one' version, we could control/update the version of the entire project from one place (settings.xml), instead of updating it in several places.
