Error description

When starting in the development environment, the necessary dependencies are reloaded. The following error may occur:

[WARNING] Failed to retrieve plugin descriptor for de.xima.fc.maven.plugin:fc-server-maven-plugin:8.3.6: Plugin de.xima.fc.maven.plugin:fc-server-maven-plugin:8.3.6 or one of its dependencies could not be resolved:
            Could not find artifact de.xima.fc.maven.plugin:fc-server-maven-plugin:jar:8.3.6 in xima (https://artifactory.xima-services.de/artifactory/fc-plugin-dev)
            Could not find artifact de.xima.fc.maven.plugin:fc-server-maven-plugin:jar:8.3.6 in central (https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2)

Explanation Cause

Only the major and minor versions of the formcycle to be started can be used for plugin development. This means that for formcycle 8.0.x, the Maven plugin in version 8.0.x should be used, for formcycle 8.1.x the Maven plugin in version 8.1.x, etc. In this specific case, version 8.3.0 should therefore be used
