Attached patch upgrades deps to PMD 4.2.2 (and jaxen 1.1.1,asm 3.1, and backport-util-concurrent 3.1).

Also includes support for the PMD Ant-Task "mimimumPriority" setting with the maven.pmd.minimumpriority property. (Allows you to set the priority at which violations are triggered to fail the build - rather than just any violation.)

And, if interested, I would be willing to join the project to test and commit this sort of stuff on various Maven 1.x plugins (I work for a company that still heavily uses Maven 1.x, though we also use 2.x in some places - a lot of our 1.x plugins are updated where the current released versions are not).

Upgrading pmd has been on our agenda for a while (MPPMD-32) but it was ultimately abandoned because of classloader concerns, see [1] for discussion. Development on m1 and m1 plugins is generally suspended now, unless there is sustained interest from a larger community, I don't think there will be any more releases.

If you want to become a committer you will have to follow the Apache meritocracy rules [2], ie submit a significant number of patches over an extended period of time.

Thanks for the info.

I read the previous discussion about the classloader concerns, and while it does outline that an upgrade would involve the core and subsequent other plugins, it doesn't really draw any final conclusion.

Nevertheless it seems to be a moot point if development on the M1 line is generally suspended now (and any other patches I have are also moot, so I will just keep them locally and not worry about submitting, just thought it might help).
