Description

Since Maven 2.0.9 Maven comes with a set of predefined versions in the super POM and the default lifecycle bindings
When using these plugins without explicit giving it a version in your pom, the build depends on a specific Maven version.
Best practice is to lock these plugins in your pom, hence these Maven defaults should be banned.
When using the Maven Wrapper, you have already locked the Maven version, in which case you don't need to lock these versions.
