[jira] [Commented] (MPLUGIN-297) plugin-info.html should contain a better Usage section

["Hervé Boutemy (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MPLUGIN-297?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16327787#comment-16327787 ] 

Hervé Boutemy commented on MPLUGIN-297:
---------------------------------------

simply removing plugins section does not looks a good idea

Perhaps messages can be improved to explain about pluginManagement vs plugins: don't hesitate to provide PR

[https://github.com/apache/maven-plugin-tools/blob/master/maven-plugin-plugin/src/main/resources/plugin-report.properties]

keys are {{report.plugin.usage.pluginManagement}} and {{report.plugin.usage.plugins}}

> The usage section in the page "plugin-info.html" being generated by the {{report}} goal of the {{maven-plugin-plugin}} contains the version information of the plugin in both sections {{pluginManagement}} as well as {{plugins}}. I think it is best practice to only give out the version in the {{pluginManagement}}. Therefore please remove the version from  the {{plugins}} section.
> One example for that can be seen in https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-compiler-plugin/plugin-info.html.
