But I believe it's fair to assume that most people currently use this plugin version without being affected by the bug (otherwise the bug would have been reported earlier). That is to say, if we halt a release of a parent POM just because one of the proposed *default* versions is known to have bugs, hm, how did we ever get out a parent ;-) ?

I forgot to mention that the bug only happens when aggregate is set to true in the plugin's configuration. Seeing as we have a couple of aggregated builds in mojo, I thought it would be best to wait for the fix.

Releasing parents can be a tricky thing, for the reasons you mention. I guess it comes down to if there is a fix for the bug or not :-) But quite often you get into the chicken-or-egg discussion, especially when dealing with parents for plugins.

Anyway, releasing mojo:17 was not urgent, it just had summed up enough, so
I'm fine with cancelling the release and retrying after
taglist-maven-plugin:2.2.
