how do I make the modules use the same version as the parent pom? 2.1?

There was a note in maven-users that maven 2.1 would have a solution  
to having to specify a version in all sub-modules. Is there a jira  
bug and/or patch for this or any discussion at all? (I searched the  
archives and didn't turn up much.) I have lots of sub-modules and  
release often which means the svn log on all my poms gets pretty long  
and useless.

Here's the message from maven-users...

We're working on a cohesive solution in Maven 2.1 that balances out
the principle of least surprise, reproducibility and ease of use.

However, you can use the release plugin with 2.0 to aid in updating
the version after each release.
