So we would have something like: ejb3_1 module pom.xml: <parent>   <artifactId>bom-as6</artifactId>   <version>0.1.3</version> </parent> <artifactId>jboss-ejb3_1</artifactId> bom-as6 pom.xml: <artifactId>bom-as6</artifactId> <dependencyManagement>     <dependency>         <artifactId>jboss-ejb3-core</artifactId>         <version>1.3.2</version>     </dependency> <!-- rest of the dep management --> </dependencyManagement> JBoss AS component-matrix pom.xml (or some module which "imports" the bom) <dependencyManagement>     <dependency>       <artifactId>bom-as6</artifactId>       <scope>import</scope>    </dependency> </dependencyManagement> The AS/ejb3 module pom.xml would add "dependency" on *ejb3_1* <dependencies>      <dependency>           <artifactId>jboss-ejb3_1</artifactId>           <!-- We don't specify any version here, it will be picked up from bom -->      </dependency> </dependencies> But like I said in my previous post, making bom-as6 the parent of ejb3_1 may not work out. -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [http://community.jboss.org/message/536626#536626] Start a new discussion in EJB 3.0 Development at Community [http://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
