Robert Scholte updated MNG-5900:
--------------------------------
    Description: 
Right now we have $\{project.\*} which always interpolates values based on the final project. So it is not possible that parent poms can lock values. By adding $\{this} it will be possible to have intermediate interpolation.
If a pomfile depends on a parent, that parent will first resolve all $\{this.\*} values for itself. Once the fully inherited pom is there, all $\{project.\*} will be resolved.
