    Resolution: Cannot Reproduce

Running "mvn help:effective-pom" on the parent module yields:

{noformat}
Note that this command outputs two effective models, having different groupIds for the managed dependency. Both models are correctly built as the expression {{project.parent.groupId}} (like any other POM expression) gets evaluated in the context of the current project and inheritance (by design) occurs before interpolation. In other words, the child module inherits the managed dependency in uninterpolated form and then resolves the expression from its own model, not the model of the parent.
