Release notes: http://maven.apache.org/docs/3.5.0/release-notes.html

Interesting aspects for us: * The new project.directory special property adds support in every calculated URLs (project, SCM, site) for module directory name that does not match artifactId MNG-5878 * In previous Maven versions, there had been a larger problem related to memory usage in case of very large reactors (200-300 modules or more) which caused failures with out of memory exceptions or the need to increase the memory settings. This problem has been fixed with MNG-6030.

Fixed bugs that could be interesting for us: * In previous Maven versions, there had been a larger problem related to memory usage in case of very large reactors (200-300 modules or more) which caused failures with out of memory exceptions or the need to increase the memory settings.

We should probably move to Maven 3.5 in Jenkins to benefit from it since it's mostly Jenkins which complain about that.

Potential issues: * Replaced Eclipse Aether with Maven Resolver MNG-6110, MNG-6140.

I don't think this is an issue. It just mean we use a deprecated library and we should move. I created https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XCOMMONS-1184 last week to remember about that.

Thanks -Vincent
