This plugin is only available in following repositories: * https://repository.jboss.org/nexus/content/repositories/m2-japidiff/com/google/code/japidiff/maven-japidiff-plugin/1.2/ * https://maven.repository.redhat.com/nexus/content/groups/product-earlyaccess/com/google/code/japidiff/maven-japidiff-plugin/
I'd propose to remove this plugin from our poms, because it seems to be no more maintained. But I'm not sure what this plugin do and whether we can safe remove it. The description says "Maven plugin to check the conformance of a Java API", so I think it performs only some checks.
