--------------------------------------

             Summary: Link to plugin's web site is reported as redirected by 
maven linkcheck plugin.
                 Key: MRELEASE-919
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MRELEASE-919
             Project: Maven Release Plugin
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.5.2
         Environment: maven release plugin, checkstyle
            Reporter: Andrei Selkin


Hello!

We use maven linkcheck plugin to check links on checkstyle's website: 
http://checkstyle.sourceforge.net/ . The plugin reports that on page 
http://checkstyle.sourceforge.net/plugins.html the following link 
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-release-plugin/ is redirected (301) at 
http://maven.apache.org/maven-release/maven-release-plugin/

Links on plugins.html are generated by Apache Maven Project Info Reports 
Plugin. All URLs are grabbed from effective POMs of plugins.

Here is the code:

https://github.com/apache/maven-plugins/blob/trunk/maven-project-info-reports-plugin/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/report/projectinfo/PluginsReport.java#L239

https://github.com/apache/maven-plugins/blob/trunk/maven-project-info-reports-plugin/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/report/projectinfo/PluginsReport.java#L269

In effective POM.xml of maven release plugin the problematic link is:
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-release-plugin/

As a result, we do not have an ability to change plugins urls on that page, 
because those links are specified by plugins developers.

So, please correct the link, because there are contradictions between linkcheck 
and maven release plugin.

Thank in advance!
