Michael McCallum commented on MNG-2431:
---------------------------------------
In order to have a stable system you MUST understand what the latest release
means... if you introduce this into your build you have no control over what
actually ends up in it. As an end user this is not a huge deal direct except
when people start using release in libraries in the main repositories....
you end up using the latest released code of every project and the shit hits
the fan
i vote a big -1 for this
> Make it possible to specify that version should be the LATEST STABLE available

> Hi!
> I've been looking for a way to specify that the latest STABLE version of a
> library (dependency) should be used automatically. However, I can't seem to
> find any information on this. Is this not possible? The "Dependency Version
> Ranges" doesn't solve the problem for me since it sets with the lowest
> version satisfying the range.
