Jason, Stephen, other PMC members, I can't really know if there is behind-the-scenes pmc-only discussion going on, but is there any chance to get 3.2.1 released this week? I need to do legal/IP paperwork for upcoming m2e 1.5 release by this coming Friday, and I would really like to list Maven 3.

Hi, i just came across that the maven-acr-plugin is not listed on the page http://maven.apache.org/plugins/index.html The question is: Should i create an jira issue for that and fix it afterwards or just fix it ? BTW: Do we have other plugins which are not listed on the page ? Kind regards

Hello Karl-Heinz, you may take a look at https://github.com/mfriedenhagen/org.jacoco.filteringsamples. These are some code samples for JDK5, 6, 7 and 8, which will be asmified (decompiled) to see differences in byte code produced by different JDKs. This is how the maven-compiler-plugin uses the t

Hello, If you include new functionality this means that according to semver you increase the second digit, which means conservative users will do this upgrade step not so easy anymore (and therefore miss all future fixes). I would rather include enhancements anyway but divert from strict semve

Agreed, if they small enhancements then I don't really want to release 4 things issues in a patch release and then another 5. Generally I'm fine with small enhancements, or small fixes going into patch releases, along with anything marked @provisional as I'd rather have the experimental code in

I don't see any necessity to restrict patch releases to patches only -- as long as any new functionality is a tiny enhancement and doesn't make incompatibilities. Save medium/major structural changes for a new minor version. On Wed, Feb 19, 2014 at 7:37 AM, Benson Margulies wrote: > A bit of a r

A bit of a recap: Let's say that our goal as a group was to be very responsive to user's bug reports. So, we'd want to make fixes and releases, 'promptly', for some definition of prompt. But no one will install those releases if they are not confident that they are, in fact, not going to have un

I think we have a bit of a disagreement about what changes should be going into different version numbers. To my mind, we should be using the convention that most people expect, i.e. semver[1]-ish. I am not saying that we need to be super-strict in following the exact semver specification, but I d
