Hi Karl Heinz,
AFAIK we've only talked about EOL when we had to backport code.
Once we decide to stop backporting code on the old version, we should
announce that.
Right now we're not in such a situation.
thanks,
Robert

Hi Karl Heinz,
Maven 3.0.5 is already EOL, meaning we don't develop on it anymore.
In the way you describe yes of course, but we haven't yet officially
announced that...
If you talk about plugins supporting Maven 3 (not 3.0.5!), that's up to
the plugin.
In general I don't think there are that much API changes that will
break the plugin.
No this is not what I'm talking about.. Keeping 3 compatiblity is just
fine.... only a few exceptions we might need to reconsider...but this is
a different thread.
Assuming you're talking about maven-install-plugin and
maven-deploy-plugin, the question should be:
Can we require at least Maven 3.1.0 for these plugins so we can drop
maven-artifact-transfer and simply use Eclipse Aether?
No...Ok yes patially but I wouldn't drop maven-artifact-transfer cause
using Eclipse Aether isn't that simple as the word "simply" implies...
Using maven-artifact-transfer makes it easier in plugins and extentions
to handle different scenarios....and prevents code duplications etc.
and no I woudln't say to require Maven 3.1.0 as minimum, cause we have
not yet lifted all plugins to Maven 3 minimum....
That would be the next step after a Time (which might be discussed about
what amount of time we think it makes sense) of Announcing 3.0.5 EoL...
This is for me a valid case to ask this question, for most others I'd
like to stay Maven 3.0 compatible when possible, it makes communication
a LOT easier :)
Yes of course.
Kind regards

Hi to all,
based on looking on the history of released I thought about EoL for
Maven 3.0.5 ..
The question is: What do you think about it?
Kind regards
