[jboss-dev] pom.xml housekeeping

[Sacha Labourey]

but shouldn't we reconsider this now that we have cleaned the build? 
Furthermore, we could "externalize" this information in an external 
project (as describe in the post), but I guess projects that are really 
allergic to this approach could still rely on their "custom" dependency 
set (and take the risk of being publicly bashed in case they don't 
maintain their version up-to-date).

Is it possible to write a scripts that tests these things (i.e. gather 
all dependency information for the complete build, flatten that 
information and look for multiple "PROJECT-NAME_X_Y_Z" tag that have the 
same PROJECT_NAME part but not the same X_Y_Z part? could this be part 
of the build process as a testsuite or anyhting like that?
