Whereas I don't disagree with you that the plugins (especially,
Maven's own) are not as stable as I'd like them to be ... if you don't
lock down your plugin versions guaranteeing a reproducible build, then
you're just asking for it. Maven isn't perfect but I don't think you
should blame it for doing strange things when given an inherently
unreproducible build. Lock down your versions.

I completely understand your frustration but until you lock down your
plugin versions, don't blame Maven.

(Maybe they release broken plugins just to make sure you lock down
your versions. ;-) :-D )
