-----------------------------------

Check out the "display-plugin-updates" goal of the versions-maven-plugin.  I think this is what you want.

> Maven best practice is to lock down all plugin versions (in a super-pom) so that your builds are reproducible. Therefore, to take advantage of maven plugin updates, a periodic review of plugin versions is needed. A tool to tell you what plugins have new versions available would make this much easier.
