[security-dev] [PicketLink] - Version 2.5.0.Beta3 Released

[Pete Muir]

This can't be "fixed" in Maven Central, once an artefact is there, it is there.

All we can do is ameliorate the problem via education.

We do provide BOMs which specify a version of PicketLink to use, and recommend people always use the BOM, and don't specify the version directly. We also recommend not using version ranges. Finally, we need to be very clear on the project site about which versions to use.
