See also the Enforcer's FAQ [0]. > Possibly the description in the maven model reference [0] could then be altered? Maybe something like: "For a plugin, the minimum version of Maven required to use the plugin. For other types of Maven projects, the minimum version of Maven required to build the project. In the latter case, the Maven Enforcer Plugin is more appropriate to enforce specific Maven versions." Just a suggestion as this text made me confused. /Anders [0] http://maven.apache.org/ref/3.0.1/maven-model/maven.html#class_prerequisites > > Benjamin > > > [0] http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-enforcer-plugin/faq.html > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe from this list, please visit: > > http://xircles.codehaus.org/manage_email > > >
