According to the book at http://hbase.apache.org/book.html#build.basic our minimum maven version is currently 3.0.4
However, after HBASE-20212 introduced the warbucks plugin we require 3.0.5 I'm not against bumping the minimum here when there is value added, but we should take this opportunity to examine if it makes sense to bump further? I couldn't tell which release lines are still supported by the maven community aside from the latest. Should we include a nice table listing hbase version with minimum maven for building? Mike
