Herve Boutemy commented on MWRAPPER-33:
---------------------------------------
wrapper plugin will be used as "mvn wrapper:wrapper", without any version lock
in pom.xml
=> everybody will use LATEST by default
switching to version-locked call is really cumbersome: I created MNG-7353
this is why IMHO maven-wrapper-plugin needs to be more conservative on plugin
prerequisites than any other plugin
and switching fro Java 8 to Java 7 really cost me not much code modification:
really, putting a 8 or 11 or 17 value in parent pom.xml is easy, but I don't
see much benefit for Maven maintainers and I see the inconvenience we put on
users
> Use java 8 in maven-wrapper
