Additional Checkstyle checks, that could be added as extension to EclipseCS plugin and maven-checkstyle-plugin, Sonar checkstyle plugin, extension for CheckStyle IDEA plugin.
Let's find a way to define in pom.xml the latest snapshot and most recent version. And the latest released version when we define dependencies. To let us skip such updates at all.

Right now we do bump a version in a few projects https://github.com/checkstyle/checkstyle/wiki/How-to-make-a-release#update-for-released-version-reference right after release.
Let's find a way to define in pom.xml the latest snapshot and most recent version. And the latest released version when we define dependencies. To let us skip such updates at all.
CI of such projects should be able to get the latest version from https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/puppycrawl/tools/checkstyle/maven-metadata.xml and run projects with such version.
We can have in all such repos, a GitHub action that runs once a day check https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/puppycrawl/tools/checkstyle/maven-metadata.xml, put such values in required files, and send PRs with changes (PR is necessary as we need notice is any problems happens if we introduce breaking changes)
