no feedback: does it mean everybody is surprised? agrees/disagrees?

I worked on establishing the status of ASF Maven plugins:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=406620656#Maven4.0.0GAchecklist-Maven4API

I all starts by establishing if existing Maven 3 plugins work with Maven 4 or 
not: I did it for plugins that went to a Maven 4-specific branch

I think doing that check on ALL ASF Maven plugins would make sense, to 
establish how our "Maven 3 plugins compatibility plan" works or not

and when a plugin fails initially, establishing why, and if a fix can be done 
without creating the Maven 4 branch, would be useful

Help welcome
