Hi team,
I think it's time to start the releases.
If you don't mind I would start with the basic modules running on all LTS
java versions:
- parent pom 3.0.0 -> 3.1.0
- versioning checker and plugin 0.3.1 -> 0.4.0
- util 1.1.3 -> 2.0.0 (based on current snapshot in pom)
- test support unit 1.0.0 -> 2.0.0 (based on current snapshot in pom)
