Now that maven-wrapper is available in master of maven-core, the next step
would be to make it easy to use.
I've created MNG-6917[1] to make it possible to simply call {{mvn wrapper}}
However, this requires the plugin to be available.
On the other hand, the plugin must be able to download the apache-maven-wrapper
distribution.
So I want to release the plugin first, so in Maven Core we can refer to a
version we can confirm to work.
It has been written from scratch, but is quite small.
I want to give everybody the chance to give it a try this week, while I will
work on the documentation.
Next weekend I want to perform a release of the plugin (starting with 3.0.0)
