> Key: MNG-7408

> Project: Maven
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Sites & Reporting
> Affects Versions: 3.8.4
> Reporter: Herve Boutemy
> Assignee: Herve Boutemy
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 3.8.5, 4.0.0-alpha-1, 4.0.0-alpha-2, 4.0.0

>
> 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/
