[ANN] Maven Announcement Plugin 1.4 for Maven 1 released

We are pleased to announce the Maven Announcement Plugin 1.4 release! 

http://maven.apache.org/maven-1.x/reference/plugins/announcement/

The Announcement plugin generates release announcements. It uses the 
information found in both the POM and in the changes.xml file to generate the 
announcement text. 

===============================================================================

Changes in this version include:

  New Features:

o Added property maven.announcement.lenient. Fixes MPANNOUNCEMENT-19. 
o Support new format of <action>element in changes.xml. Fixes 
  MPANNOUNCEMENT-18. 
o Modified the announcement text " The ${pom.groupId} team is pleased..." in 
  favor of " We are pleased..." and changed the signature from " The 
  ${pom.groupId} team" to " The ${pom.name} development team". Fixes 
  MPANNOUNCEMENT-15. 
o Add information about the Maven remote repo to use in the generated 
  download instructions. Added a maven.announcement.repo.remoteproperty that 
  can be used to specify from which Maven remote repository the artifact for 
  this project can be found. Fixes MPANNOUNCEMENT-16. 

  Fixed bugs:

o CR-LF generated do not match the platform. Fixes MPANNOUNCEMENT-3. 
o Xml entities transformed in wrong direction. Fixes MPANNOUNCEMENT-10. 

  Changes:

o Update dependencies to match ones in maven 1.1 core and to unify them 
  between plugins. The following dependencies are updated : commons-net 
  v1.2.1 -> v1.4.0 commons-jelly-tags-xml v1.0 -> v1.1 Fixes 
  MAVEN-1712.
