Description

Carsten recently (revision 670566) added the incubating repository to the parent POM in svn. But since many components refer to version 3-incubator (instead of 4-incubator-SNAPSHOT) as the parent POM, this repository reference is not picked up by the build.

And if the 3-incubator version of the parent POM is not available in the local Maven repository, the build fails as Maven does not know where to download it from (since the components don't refer to 4-incubator-SNAPSHOT version of the parent POM...).

Moving the repository reference to the reactor POM also won't help.

The options I see are:

1) Make components use 4-incubator-SNAPSHOT as the parent POM version
2) Make the 3-incubator version of the parent POM explicitly available in svn
3) Add the incubator repository reference to all component POMs
4) Publish the 3-incubator version of the parent POM to the standard Maven repository
