Hi Benjamin, I'm especially interested in the previous major bumps, not the current one. For Maven 4 we have 3 hours to go into the details.
We will mention the new Java Runtime version requirement, but I consider that a change that lifts upon the real majors. During both Maven2 and Maven3 the Java runtime version requirement has increased. In general that was not a real issue as it was a push to the latest EOL version.

Also Maven 4: extensions where you can use pom.conf or pom.yml etc. On Mon, 23 Sept 2024, 10:53 Robert Scholte, <rfscho...@apache.org> wrote: > Hi all, > > > > Within 2 weeks I will do a talk with Maarten about Maven 4. > > Part of that are some slides about previous major releases that should > clearly explain why it was a major release at not the next minor. > > > > In short I came with this list: > > > > M1 -> M2: (breaking change, migration required) > > modelVersion: 3.0.0 -> 4.0.0 > > xsd: https://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-v3_0_0.xsd -> > https://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd > > (as doc): > > https://maven.apache.org/archives/maven-1.x/reference/maven-model/3.0. > 2/mave > n.html > <https://maven.apache.org/archives/maven-1.x/reference/maven-model/3.0 > .2/maven.html> > -> https://maven.apache.org/ref/3.9.9/maven-model/maven.html > > Spod: project.xml -> pom.xml > > plugin: written in Jelly (=executable XML) -> written in > Java > > repository layout: > /repository/maven/jars/maven-1.0-beta-8.jar > -> /repository/org/apache/maven/maven-core/2.2.1/maven-core-2.2.1.jar > > introduction of lifecycles > > M2->M3: (migration required for reporting plugins) > > Extract dependency/artifact related code to separate > independent library: Aether > > Extract maven-reporting to separate independent library: > maven-reporting-api + maven-reporting-impl > > Maven-reactor-plugin -> embedded > (https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-reactor-plugin/index.html) > > (for the end-user most changes were invisible, as they were mainly > under the > hood) > > > > Did I miss something important and are these statements correct? > > > > Thanks, > > Robert > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@maven.apache.org
