Hi, After discussion I think that model like:
https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-clean-plugin/ - documentation for branch 3.x https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-clean-plugin-4.x/ - documentation for master version 4.x and according to above for stage version https://maven.apache.org/plugins-archives/maven-clean-plugin-LATEST-4.x/ - master https://maven.apache.org/plugins-archives/maven-clean-plugin-LATEST/ - 3.x version will be the best today, so I will prepare updates in documentation On Fri, 7 Feb 2025 at 13:30, Elliotte Rusty Harold <elh...@ibiblio.org> wrote: > > On Fri, Feb 7, 2025 at 8:50 AM Slawomir Jaranowski > <s.jaranow...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > I would like to maintain both versions only for some of the core > > plugins - in order to test / check the new API from Maven 4. > > > > As Maven 4 still supports plugins for Maven 3 - we can switch the rest > > of plugins after the release final version of Maven 4. > > Software deployment moves a lot slower than devs would like.
