[ANN] Apache Maven 3.9.3 released

[Tamás Cservenák <cs...@apache.org>]

The Apache Maven team is pleased to announce the release of the
Apache Maven 3.9.3

Apache Maven is a software project management and comprehension tool. Based
on the concept of a project object model (POM), Maven can manage a
project's build, reporting and documentation from a central piece of
information.

Maven 3.9.3 is available via https://maven.apache.org/download.cgi

The core release is independent of plugin releases. Further releases of
plugins will be made separately.

If you have any questions, please consult:

- the web site: https://maven.apache.org/
- the maven-user mailing list: https://maven.apache.org/mailing-lists.html
- the reference documentation: https://maven.apache.org/ref/3.9.3/
