[ANN] Apache Maven 4.0.0-alpha-4 released

2023-01-31 Thread Guillaume Nodet 
The Apache Maven team is pleased to announce the release of the
Apache Maven 4.0.0-alpha-4.

Apache Maven is a software project management and comprehension tool.
Based on the concept of a project object model (POM), Maven can manage a
project's build, reporting and documentation from a central piece of
information.

Maven 4.0.0-alpha-4 is available via
https://dlcdn.apache.org/maven/maven-4/4.0.0-alpha-4/

This in alpha release, not suitable for production. If you hit any issues
with plugins, please raise a JIRA issue, after verifying that the same
issue has not been reported yet (see JIRA issues raised on 4.0.0-alpha

).

Main changes:
* upgrade maven resolver 1.9.4
* improved resolution of modules within a multi-module build
* do not parse all projects in the reactor when building a subtree
* fix some compatibility issues (with flatten-maven-plugin)
* re-implement the consumer pom feature to support the maven-gpg-plugin

The full release notes for maven 4.0.0-alpha-4 are available at

https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=12316922=12352667
