Benjamin Bentmann commented on MARTIFACT-18:
--------------------------------------------
Maybe this needs some more rethought: As far as I read, the [Ordering
Algo|http://docs.codehaus.org/display/MAVEN/Versioning#Versioning-Orderingalgorithm]
makes a significant difference when comparing integers or strings: "Integer is
newer [than String]". I haven't actually tried, but from this I would assume
that "x.(MAX_INT)" > "x.(MAX_INT + 1)" which would be odd. An alternative
approach could be to use {{java.math.BigInteger}} for the numerical components.
