Description

Currently, we produce a WARNING in case of using pom.version or alike.

We've been doing that for years so people have had enough time to update their projects. We can now remove the support and the accompanying warning, resorting to the default behaviour of not resolving the expression at all.

[WARNING] 
[WARNING] Some problems were encountered while building the effective model for 'com.soebes.examples.j2ee:appasm:pom:1.0-SNAPSHOT'
[WARNING] The expression ${pom.version} is deprecated. Please use ${project.version} instead.
