             Summary: explain reporting plugin version automatic selection
                 Key: MNG-7408
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-7408
             Project: Maven
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Sites & Reporting
    Affects Versions: 3.8.4
            Reporter: Herve Boutemy
            Assignee: Herve Boutemy
             Fix For: 3.8.5


reporting plugin version looks like normal version = you need to define a 
version for build stability 
https://maven.apache.org/ref/3.8.4/maven-model/maven.html#class_reporting

and in the past, it did not even benefit from pluginManagement version selection

but since Maven SIte Plugin ..., it benefits not only from pluginManagement 
version but also from plugin: we need to make that clear, because versions of 
report plugins are a pain for users who don't know about this, because it force 
them to define a property that will be used both in pluginManagement/plugin and 
reporting
