I think this might be it:
http://www.mojohaus.org/versions-maven-plugin/display-property-updates-mo...
It is interesting. But perhaps we might need something ad-hoc, in the srcdeps spirit.
For example, in the versions repo we can target the Alpha8 versions, i.e. accounts
1.1.4.Final, perhaps, accounts might have other upper releases 2.0.0.Final for WF10, but
the plugin can warn me that I'm not using the 1.1.4.Final.
Accounts would be responsible (or someone else) to put the right version on the
"versions repo" (which can be just a properties file on github).
So, we would work as today, but this non-intrusive plugin could help us to coordinate in
some degree.
