That's ok, locking the plugin versions is actually something I'm not too worried about since in all cases we are locking to the currently released version, and it's a simple fix in the poms if that causes a problem. I'm worried about stuff like James found (MNG-3119).

So considering that one of the good things about this release is the lock down of plugin version I won't actually have a good way to test that the plugin versions included in this release are properly tested as well.
