(maven-jar-plugin) 01/01: Restore the common wording on the download page
Posted by sl...@apache.org.
This is an automated email from the ASF dual-hosted git repository.
slachiewicz pushed a commit to branch modernize-download-page
in repository https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf/maven-jar-plugin.git
commit c64e5b6a0ec4bc6f92ab75d0444ac562fa61cfb4
Author: Sylwester Lachiewicz <sl...@apache.org>
AuthorDate: Mon Aug 10 01:39:48 2026 +0200
Restore the common wording on the download page
The wording here had drifted from the text the rest of the Maven estate uses.
This restores the shared form so the page is identical to its counterparts
apart from the distribution area and the artifact name.
Rewording elsewhere in the estate had silently dropped links, leaving the text
as plain prose, so this is not purely cosmetic.
No URL or in-page anchor changes. The ASF licence header is left exactly as
it was.
