The Apache Maven team maintains the last version of the last two series of GA releases. These are currently 3.10.0 and 3.9.16.

Older versions have reached their end of life and are no longer supported in any way. This means the Maven team will not provide any bug or security fixes or add new features. Note: Maven does not differentiate between "end of life" (EOL) and "end of support" (EOS), but only uses the term "end of life".

Currently, plugins provide Maven API compatibility down to 3.9.0. See Maven Plugins Compatibility Plan for more details.

Maven 4.0+ (not yet GA)

Maven 4.x is a major release that includes significant improvements and changes: see What's new in Maven 4? article for more details.

See also Starting with Maven 4 guide to get safe upgrade instructions.
