Re: Release by module - changes to trunk

[Alasdair Nottingham <no...@apache.org>]

I have made changes to the parent poms since the 0.3 release, so if we
do this I would like to have an update release of the parent so we get
these updates. It'll help us generate better javadoc for future
releases.
