On the URL you sent, scroll down to Maven section.
Seems like since 3.3.2 to today, only steps 1, 2 and 3 were done but
4, 5, 6 were skipped.
I'm attaching the fixed maven-metadata.xml.
Notice it does NOT list 3.4.0 because apparently it's not a stable
release yet. Maven may be the most complex build system in entire
solar system but still needs tremendous hand holding when specifying
dependency version ranges and there's still no clean way to enforce
release-only versions.
Anyway, now anyone declaring version range dependencies like [3.3.0,)
in their POM, they will be able to get 3.3.4. When you 3.4.0 is
considered to be a stable release.
You may ask, what if someone wants to test very latest version (3.4.0
currently) in their project? It won't work with Maven. Suggested
method is to release it as a snapshot to a snapshots only repository
with -SNAPSHOT appended to the version name. Maven will not pull
-SNAPSHOT versions from remote repositories automatically.
Thanks,
