check openjpa-2.2.0 for plugin and dependency updates
-----------------------------------------------------
Key: OPENJPA-2092
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENJPA-2092
Project: OpenJPA
Issue Type: Task
Components: build / infrastructure
Affects Versions: 2.2.0
Reporter: Mark Struberg
Fix For: 2.2.0
While checking the docbook, I figured that we use some pretty heavily outdated
dependencies and plugins.
I think it's time now to to go through those and check if they can be replaced
with newer versions.
Of course this would require some serious testing - but this _has_ to be done
somewhen!
So I would like to see this done before rather sooner than later.
There is a neat maven plugin to report such issues, but it seems that this is
not as widely known as it should be. If my OpenJPA fellows already use this
already, so excuse me and treat this as just a reminder ;)

The most important goals.
$> mvn versions:help
In fact the 'help' goal exists for *all* maven plugins. So this is again just a
reminder ...
$> mvn versions:display-plugin-updates
Shows all available plugin updates
$> mvn versions:display-dependency-updates
Shows all available dependency updates
