Create template for Maven integration
One common set of feedback and questions when talking to customers on CI/CD is how we handle the lack of plugins. Many customers and users realize the daily pain of managing these with Jenkins, and all the hurdles it entails, but are concerned about having to write all of their own integrations from scratch in shell script. (Or baking it into a docker image.)
One integration in particular that was mentioned as being particularly hard, would be Maven.
As a proof point of our current story, can we try to write our own script to integrate with Maven as a PoC? We could then write up a blog post documenting this, and hopefully leverage as a template for others to use.
If this ends up being particularly hard, we may need to think about how to make this easier without the pain that comes with plugins.
