> We have the following situation in our project:
> A parent pom containing the following infos:
> <properties>
>     <jettyVersion>6.1.9</jettyVersion>
> </properties>
> <build>
>     <plugins>
>         <plugin>
>             <groupId>org.mortbay.jetty</groupId>
>             <artifactId>maven-jetty-plugin</artifactId>
>             <version>${jettyVersion}</version>
>         </plugin>
>     </plugins>
> </build>
> A child module with the following configuration:
> <build>
>     <plugins>
>         <plugin>
>             <groupId>org.mortbay.jetty</groupId>
>             <artifactId>maven-jetty-plugin</artifactId>
>             <dependencies>
>                 <dependency>
>                     <groupId>org.mortbay.jetty</groupId>
>                     <artifactId>jetty-plus</artifactId>
>                     <version>${jettyVersion}</version>
>                 </dependency>
>                 <dependency>
>                     <groupId>org.mortbay.jetty</groupId>
>                     <artifactId>jetty-naming</artifactId>
>                     <version>${jettyVersion}</version>
>                 </dependency>
>             </dependencies>
>         </plugin>
>     </plugins>
> </build>
> The property jettyVersion was added during the latest. The parent pom is the first sub-module in the master pom, followed by the other sub-modules including the child-module above. All <parent> definitions include correct <relativePath> entries.
> Previously, it worked perfectly well to simply build the master pom, which in turn built the parent followed by all other sub-modules.
> Since Maven 3, however, this didn't work anymore. Right after the addition of the jettyVersion property, Maven 3 complained with the following error:
> [ERROR] The build could not read 24 projects -> [Help 1]
> [ERROR]   
> [ERROR]   The project xyz:2.0.0-SNAPSHOT (/path/to/child/pom.xml) has 2 errors
> [ERROR]     'build.plugins.plugin[org.mortbay.jetty:maven-jetty-plugin].dependencies.dependency.version' for org.mortbay.jetty:jetty-plus:jar must be a valid version but is '${jettyVersion}'. @ line 28, column 28
> [ERROR]     'build.plugins.plugin[org.mortbay.jetty:maven-jetty-plugin].dependencies.dependency.version' for org.mortbay.jetty:jetty-naming:jar must be a valid version but is '${jettyVersion}'. @ line 33, column 28
> Building the parent manually fixed this issue.
> To be precise, our actual project involved another parent level, i.e. the parent described above was the parent of parent2 while parent2 was the parent of the child module - but I don't think that this is relevant. I'm just mentioning it just in case. Again, all <parent> definitions include correct <relativePath> entries.
> This worked in Maven 2 so I think it's a regression.
