Follow on from: http://old.nabble.com/What%27s-blocking-releasing-maven-compiler-plugin--td26154745.html#a26156747
Here is my proposal of the test plan. 1. We (=benjamin) set up the grid @ sonatype to use the maven-plugin-enforcer ( https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/maven/sandbox/trunk/maven/maven-plugin-enforcer ) 2. We (=benjamin) run all the builds that are currently working with m3+plugin-enfocer+new compiler plugin -SNAPHOT. If all builds still pass with the new compiler plugin, then we say all is good 3. If all is good, we (=benjamin or me or somebody else) stage a release of maven-compiler plugin. 4. We (=benjamin) run all the builds that are currently working with m3+plugin-enfocer+new compiler plugin (staged release). If all builds still pass with the new compiler plugin, then we say all is good and call a vote Any body got any objections / additional test cases to add? -Stephen P.S. we should re-use this test plan for surefire
