We are programmers. We ignore warnings :-) 

Ok, gory details:
For a long time we used to strip away parent pom information to simplify
dependencies. In some cases there parent poms were used to define
version of certain plugin for all children (so they wouldn't have to
redefine). However by stripping away parent poms we lose that
information. It's rarely a problem though and we are chipping away at it
bit by bit.

Feel free to ignore them, just be aware of them.
