--------------------------------

I'm pretty sure this is already fixed even in 2.x.

> when projects specify dependencyManagement sections with a shorthand version notation using the current project version (using ${project.version}) the version resolved will be that of the POM in which the dependencyManagement section is specified. If this POM is a snapshot, these dependency specifications will get the timestamp/buildnumber of that POM, instead of the actual one used when the dependency it references gets deployed.
> We should look at strategies for limiting or eliminating this practice, or else (somehow) pulling the real timestamp/buildnumber for that artifact from the reactor...in order to make these deps transitively resolvable for users.
