this PR mixes many many different things: - create a property to define maven-javadoc-plugin version: no, please don't do that - remove one source of noise in generated javadoc: timestamp = a good idea - the hope that it will be sufficient to have reproducible javadoc: IMHO, you're dreaming, there are so many moving parts in javadoc generated html (with links to external components javadoc) that I personnally stopped dreaming about it - the question of configuring the reporting section in addition to configuring the plugin, which should not be necessary since maven-site-plugin 3.4: see https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-site-plugin/history.html (some documentation here and there should probably require some updates to explain how things evolved over time) all in all, in this PR, I would only keep the timestamp removal in plugin configuration (and not advertise it as "configure javadoc for reproducible builds", because it's only a little part of what is needed for that) anything else would require separate discussion ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
