Thanks for the tip, I'll try that.
I guess we need the FindBugs team to release FindBugs directly to a
maven repository so that the plugin can just always get the latest
version? Is the interface between the plugin and FindBugs itself
changing so often that the plugin needs to be updated with every
new version of FindBugs?
