Herve Boutemy updated MNG-7408:
-------------------------------
Description:
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
in Maven 2, it did not even benefit from pluginManagement version selection
but since Maven 3, 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
and since Maven Site Plugin 3.4, it also benefits from pluginManagement
configuration
see https://maven.apache.org/shared/maven-reporting-exec/
