Hi all, I have a question which I am hoping someone can answer.
Rule #1 releases are golden. However Apache plugin releases violate that rule[1][2]. If a vote fails the next vote seems to be for exactly the same version of the plugin I sit behind a corporate MRM - and as such we keep every single release we download forever (as we need to make sure all builds are reproducible). Changing this policy to test plugins up for a vote could end up with an un-reproducible build (if a staged plugin is used). Grabbing the plugin and installing to my local maven repo is likely doomed to failure due to MNG-5181. So given that releases are not always golden my question is what do people do in order to test this with their software in a corporate environment? (or to put it another way why are versions re-used if a vote fails, violating the #1 maven rule)?
