The top-ranking Google result for "mongodb java driver maven" is mongo-java-driver on Maven (3.12.x). Unfortunately, there is no way for a user to deduce that 3.12.x is actually several versions behind the most recent release, as there is no link to mongodb-driver-sync. We've seen this happen with users in the past (see this community forums post as an example).

Can we update the text on that page (right below the artifact name) to:

"This artifact is not the most recent release of the MongoDB Java Driver. To use the most recent release of the MongoDB Java Driver, please use mongodb-driver-sync instead."

If it is possible to update the last bit of text to link to mongodb-driver-sync, that would be ideal. We can also update the "pomName" to something like "MongoDB Legacy Java Driver"
