Plugin versions

Hi all,

I'm going to add a pluginManagement section to my parent pom, but I
want to understand these things so I can do it right.

1. How does maven decide what version to get if it's not defined in
the super pom?
2. How do I find out what version of all the plugins my pom is using
(help:effective-pom?)
3. How do I find out what versions are available (latest stable).

Thanks,
Phillip

Yeah, a *company* pom even that all Parent POMs load as a parent.

I like to nail down everything, to me, it's a build specification and I
want it all defined and (self) documented.

Thanks.  I also found versions:display-plugin-updates, which was the
main one I was trying to remember.

I should specify versions for all plugins I'm using in my parent pom,
and not just rely on the super pom, right?
