Child and Parent POM traversal

[nkavian]

My POM has a dependency on org.atteo : evo-classindex.

As it turns out, they have child modules as well as a parent module.

A) The parent module defines the license for all of the child modules. This isn't being picked up by license-check.
-- Would like license-check to accept the parent POM license when the current POM doesn't have one defined.

B) The POM and/or child modules depend on other POMs. Those don't seem to be picked up either.
-- Would like obviously for class-index to recursively traverse dependencies and child modules.

Regarding (A) it was pointed out to me that you do support traversing into the parent. Maybe then it is a bug?

I saw this output when I got the failure:

[ERROR] Could not resolve parent artifact (org.atteo:evo-classindex-top:2.0): Failure to find org.atteo:evo-classindex-top:jar:2.0 in http://repo1.maven.org/maven2 was cached in the local repository, resolution will not be reattempted until the update interval of central has elapsed or updates are forced
