Please release the plugin as it is now and let's close this issue. We will go 
from there by either opening new issues or pinging you on existing ones.
Since we are new to the project, there will probably be questions we will be 
asking as we to try to help out.
Thanks.

Robert Scholte commented on MCHECKSTYLE-346:


Upgrading to Checkstyle 6.19 is not possible due to a failing integrationtest. 
Root cause is MCHECKSTYLE-322.
The plugin will be released as 3.0.0, since it drops Maven2 support.

For the next release based on JDK8 we can go to 3.1.0.

It might be off topic here, 
but it would be awesome to upgrade checkstyleVersion to 7.X release but this 
will require upgrade of plugin to jdk8 , as it major update for Checkstyle 
http://checkstyle.sourceforge.net/releasenotes.html#Release_7.0 .
can you help us to upgrade to jdk8 parent poms and . , we will contribute 
all other checkstyle related update, I could create separate issue on this if 
you agree to help.

I do understand you. Just try to find compromise to avoid blocks.

Please share your thoughts  , we can provide fixes (migration for new 
versions of checkstyle, as we are in full context of how to make it), but it 
would be awesome for us to know when we can expect release of such fixes.
We are completely understand that release will not be immediate, but at least 
ones in few month, or any other trigger. I know that release process is not big 
fun for engineers, and is postponed as much as possible, and  . But 
contributors will unlikely send you code if they know that release will take a 
while, so fork is better for them or do any other workaround. 
Please share your thought and thanks lot for cooperation.

bq. Checkstyle team is small ...

We have the same issue with regard to active committers and comparing this with 
the code to maintain we're probably even in worse shape.

We cannot isolate access to just one plugin, so letting one of you join the 
team just to maintain this plugin is unlikely to happen. 
I can think of several other solutions, but in the end it all depends how much 
control you want over this plugin and if the current situation is acceptable. 
This might require to ping the team when necessary.

Hi [~rfscholte], thanks a lot for reply.

Checkstyle team is small, and not capable in sync all plugins of checkstyle, we 
already got ownership of Sonar plugin and have lack of time to keep it in sync 
too.
There are number of issues what are related to checkstyle and bunch of issues 
related to system that runs plugins (Sonar, maven,). So it will be hard for 
one team to maintain the project alone.

What if some members (me and/or Richard) of Checkstyle team join to maven 
checkstyle plugin with ability to commit to it and release it, in this case we 
could help to upgrade plugin in changes related to checkstyle and Apache team 
still could help this plugin to upgrade in maven related changes.

Hi richard, the message is clear. I wasn't aware of these issues. ( just to 
give you a hint about [our 
issues|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MAVEN/Maven+JIRA+issues+overview]
 ).
I think it should be possible to do a new release, let me have a look at this 
this period.
Also, speaking for myself, I think it would be an interesting idea to move the 
maven-checkstyle-plugin to the checkstyle project, so they can stay in sync.

richard commented on MCHECKSTYLE-346:
-

As we have still not heard anything, we have started the process to break away 
from using maven-checkstyle-plugin in Checkstyle. Since it is the holiday 
season, we will wait until January before getting started. I suspect it may 
take us a month or so before we start incorporating serious backward breaking 
changes that will cause the plugin not to function with future versions of 
Checkstyle unless a new version of the maven plugin is released.
