I would like to upgrade the checkstyle version in commons-rng. Currently
the project uses maven-checkstyle-plugin 3.0.0 which defaults to
checkstyle 6.18.
This version is old [1] and not supported by modern IDEs. An update (to
version 8.x) would allow checkstyle to be run within the IDE and avoid
separate checks of the checkstyle report on the command line.
There is no management of the checkstyle version in commons-parent. I
would like to get a consensus on the versions used across commons and
any reason to not upgrade. There may be legacy reasons I am unaware of.
Regards,
Alex
