Subject: [VOTE] Graduate maven-reactor-plugin from sandbox


Some people are using the maven-reactor-plugin and they seem to like it.

http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-reactor-plugin/

It's at a point where I think it's basically ready to release, but I assume it shouldn't be released from sandbox.

One weird thing about it is that three of its goals (reactor:make, reactor:make-dependents, reactor:resume) are now features in the maven-2.1.x branch; they will presumably get released as either 2.1.0 or as 2.1.1 if 2.0.10 is/becomes 2.1.

I still think this plugin is worth releasing, for two reasons:

1) reactor:make-scm-changes will probably never become part of the Maven core, and probably should never, so at least one goal has long term value.

2) While I'd expected most people to use this goal from the command- line, it will also work wired up as part of a POM, e.g. as the default goal for particular profiles. The new core features are command-line only.

3) A lot of people are on 2.0 and may be on 2.0 for a while yet (even if we release 2.1 very quickly).

Thoughts?
