We're in an awkward situation.
It looks like that of all the 3.8.x releases, the first (3.8.1) is the
most stable one.
The subtitle of Maven 3.8.2 was "Fixes and non-invasive backports from
Maven 4.0.0-alpha-1."
Looking back it looks like the backports weren't that non-invasive, and
we have unintended regressions on both 3.8.2 and 3.8.3 compared to 3.6.3
As you might know we do our (plugin) tests with every latest
3.x-release, because most assume that should be the most stable one.
Hence we need to have a 3.8.4 with either fixes or reverts before
thinking of any other release.
thanks,
Robert

Onderwerp: Re: Upcoming Maven 3.8.4
That's the normal release process for any project AFAIK, if you want to put
a release candidate out to on https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/ that
is done via svn, we've automated those steps.
Then the actual release goes to https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/,
same for Maven https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/maven/
After that, the files are mirrored all over by various servers.
Publishing to Maven Central is a separate process but critical since that
is what most builds (Maven, Ant Ivy, and so on) expect and use.

Hi,
Very strange release process for common components ... some of the
artifacts are published to the Central Repository and some of them are
published by svn repository ...
I don't see benefit for customizing maven core for one of case of usage
but it is discussion for another place, here I only point it
