Should biotextmining be a parent pom?

[pvilaca]

The biotextmining could be a parent pom with the following children poms:

• core
• process
• machinelearning
• clustering
• processesgate8
• semanticanalysis

The Pros for this change are:

• easier deploy of all the packages
• organised code into the parent
• better policy to change versions, when the parent change version all the children also change its version according to parent.

The Cons for this change are:

• ?

Give me feedback on this..

That can be a good idea, but I think that cannot be done/or sometimes it doesn't make sense, because packages like machinelearning or sematicanalysis are not always bundled in the same version (only if core package has breaking changes, dependent packages can be upgraded accordingly to the new api).
For instance, for @ note2, we normally make a version upgrade to all are required plugins (except semanticanalysis that i think is not being used on it).
For anotedaemon, you only need the core and process packages, so upgrading versions in other packages without any change doesn't make much sense...
