Re: [m2] Maven dependency analysis mojo
Hey,
I was just googling for a plugin like this.
Are there any updates on this or something usable somewhere?

I've got a working shared component and plugin here. I was waiting
until I had time to write javadoc and some comprehensive tests before
submitting it, but am happy to submit it in it's present state and
then add tests later. I'll raise an issue and attach it as is.
Cheers,
Mark
