Hi,

It's been over 10 years since these plugins were last released. They
had limited features and never gained any adoption.
https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-stage-plugin/
https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-verifier-plugin/

Therefore, I propose deprecating these plugins without releasing
further versions.

If this vote is successful I will not_make the final release of the plugins.
The source code repository will get archived, meaning it's read only
in the future.

The process for retiring a plugin is described here:
https://maven.apache.org/developers/retirement-plan-plugins.html

The vote is open for 72 hours.

[ ] +1 Yes, it's about time
[ ] -1 No, because...
