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 MNG-4162, 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/
