Description

Hi all,

Is it possible to get some versioning policy around mvnd.
Statements I would expect are:

1. is it using semver (if not what does mean major/minor/patch)
2. how does it follow maven and how does it relate to? ("it follows each minor of 3.x and there is a compatibility matrix for the equivalence" or "it is compatible with 3.x and rely on the env maven" kind of statement - I know both are not accurate as of today but just trying to illustrate the idea)
3. Any plan to support multiple maven branches?
4. What about security fixes in mvnd or maven stack?

Thanks.
