             Apache Commons Parent 44
                  RELEASE NOTES

The Apache Commons Parent team is pleased to announce the release of Apache Commons Parent 44

The Apache Commons Parent POM provides common settings for all Apache Commons components.

Updates plugins and generally requires Java 7.

Notes on Building version 44.
-----------------------------
When building, because of an issue with japicmp, we have an erroneous non-failing stacktrace
that occurs. Specifically, we see:

[warn] No new version specified and file './commons-parent/pom.xml' of artifact could not be opened as
      jar archive: error in opening zip file
java.util.zip.ZipException: error in opening zip file

mainly caused by an error in
japicmp.maven.JApiCmpMojo.populateArchivesListsFromParameters(JApiCmpMojo.java:341).

We have asked for this to be addressed in the github issue: https://github.com/siom79/japicmp/issues/195

Changes in this version include:
--------------------------------
New features:
o new profile module-name to add 'Automatic-Module-Name' entry to the manifest
o COMMONSSITE-105: Add commons-release-plugin version 1.1
o COMMONSSITE-106: Add spotbugs-maven-plugin version 3.1.3


Changes:
o felix:maven-bundle-plugin 3.4.0 -> 3.5.0.
o build artifacts -test.jar, -sources.jar and -test-sources.jar always, not only at release time
o maven-enforcer-plugin set version to 3.0.0-M1 and update Maven requirement from 3.0.0 to 3.0.5 (the latest 3.0.x.)
