Re: [tycho-user] POM-less builds and non-SNAPSHOT parent POM releases

["Sievers, Jan" <jan.sievers@xxxxxxx>]

not sure I get the problem. A sample demonstrating the problem may help.

Note that "pom-less" only means no poms for features and plugins required.
Parent poms will always be there, they can't be derived from other metadata.
Also, the way versions are mapped from OSGi to maven for pom-less builds is exactly the same way it has always been validated with pom.xml, so no change here.
