[ANN] Apache Maven Enforcer Plugin 1.3 Released

[Robert Scholte]

The Apache Maven team is pleased to announce the release of the Maven  
Enforcer Plugin, version 1.3


The Enforcer plugin provides goals to control certain environmental  
constraints such as Maven version, JDK version and OS family along with  
many more standard rules and user created rules.

plugin
  groupIdorg.apache.maven.plugins/groupId
  artifactIdmaven-enforcer-plugin/artifactId
  version1.3/version
/plugin

Versions plugin for plugin updates only

[org.apache.maven.user]

Hello.

Is it possible to get the Versions plugin to only update the version
numbers of plugins?

When running versions:use-latest-releases, the plugin immediately
folds all my dependencies version ranges into the latest version, which
is a huge pain as I then have to go back and reset them. I'd rather
have it manage my plugin versions and not touch anything else.

I could specify various excludes according to the plugin's usage page,
but this then requires that I know about the contents of each POM and
therefore can't be automated reliably.
