Hi,
As a heavy Maven **user**, what would be best for us is having some
plugin
(could be the enforcer, or another) automatically generate this
configuration for us into the POM. Something along the lines of:
mvn enforcer:lock-plugins
That's not the enforcer's job but yes a simple tool to grab the
latest set of stable plugin. Place it in a POM of your choice where
everything done is visible.
This command will find the most appropriate version of relevant
plugins and
modify my POM(s) to explicitly specify them. Later on, I can either
manually
modify my POM when I want to upgrade a plugin, or run another
command, e.g:
mvn enforcer:update-all-plugins
Exactly.
or:
mvn enforcer:update-plugin
-DgroupId=org.apache.maven.plugins-DartifactId=maven-jar-plugin
-Dversion=latest/2.9.9.9
Current behavior should remain, if only not to upset the many non-
enterprise
users which use Maven more "lightly".
HTH,
Arik.

I am thinking about the new user experience and winning more
converts.
As such, I think the current behavior is best. Once they get using
Maven
more seriously (and in corporate environments that know what
they're doing),
I think adding the Enforcer configuration and locking versions
down will
come naturally. But *requiring* it seems excessive -- unless we're
doing
that ourselves somewhere, with plugin packs or similar, then I
feel better
about it.
