            A version range which specifies the supported Java versions. A version range can either use the usual mathematical syntax "[2.0.10,2.1.0),[3.0,)" or use a single version "2.2.1". The latter is a short form for "[2.2.1,)", i.e. denotes the minimum version required.

Based on the concept of a project object model: buil ds, dependency management, documentation creation, site publication, and distribution publication are all controlled from the declarative file.

  OTOH, all offline-mode checks can probably be run from Wagon-based APIs.
