Configure Release Notes

Bug

[MPH-42] - Active profiles recursively growing
[MPH-49] - help:describe no-arg error doesn't mention "cmd"
[MPH-50] - "mvn help:describe -Dcmd=compiler:compile" describes entire plugin, not the specific mojo
[MPH-51] - "help:help -Ddetail" looks better than "help:describe -Dplugin=help -Dfull"
[MPH-52] - help:describe never shows "Default Value"

Improvement

[MPH-15] - help:describe should accept plugin prefix or prefix:goal
[MPH-26] - New goal help:help to provide help on how to use helper plugins in maven
[MPH-29] - help:describe should be way more helpful when no arguments are provided
[MPH-32] - "medium" mode should be the default for help:describe
[MPH-33] - Help plugin should refer to "goal" not "mojo"
[MPH-35] - Make -Dfull more discoverable by suggesting it
[MPH-37] - help:effective-pom - sort the properties list
[MPH-40] - help:effective-pom emits invalid XML to output file
[MPH-44] - Hide passwords for effective-settings
[MPH-46] - Improve the output of help:describe
[MPH-54] - -Dhelp:describe -Ddetail should not show component requirements

New Feature

[MPH-4] - add mojo to projecthelp to describe supported plugin parameter expressions
[MPH-12] - Create a Mojo to list all Profiles for a Project (even those loaded from an external profiles.xml)
[MPH-28] - New goal to list platform details
[MPH-30] - help:describe should accept "cmd" argument
[MPH-47] - Add a new goal to evaluate Maven expressions given by a user

Task

[MPH-43] - Create an abstract Help Mojo with output parameter
[MPH-48] - Review dependencies
