------------------------------------------
Summary: Allow "FUTURE" as an alias for "SNAPSHOT"
Key: MNG-7221
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-7221
Project: Maven
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Core
Affects Versions: 3.8.2
Reporter: Enrique Arizón Benito
SNAPSHOT versioning is an excellent idea that solve many problems, still many
people do not understand them, mostly because they do not have the time to read
the related documentation or just get confused by blogs with incorrect
information.
After working with many developers with different skills and experience I have
found that replacing SNAPSHOT by FUTURE offers a much more intuitive idea on
how to use the maven snapshots.
IMHO, allowing for nomenclature like "v1-FUTURE" as an alias for "v1-SNAPSHOT"
will boost the perceived usability of maven to many non-expert developers.
