[aspectj-users] AspectJ Maven Plugin 1.13.M3 is available

["Alexander Kriegisch" <alexander@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello AspectJ users!

In lock-step with AspectJ 1.9.7.M3, I also just release AspectJ Maven
plugin 1.13.M3. It depends on the new AspectJ milestone, including its
AJdoc bugfix for JDK 8. See my previous message on this mailing list.

Kind regards
