Arik Kfir commented on MNG-3092:
--------------------------------
+1 for including SNAPSHOTs in the version ranges if the artifact is in the
reactor. I also liked the [x,y){use-snapshots=true} proposal.
I also agree that this is a process problem and should be enforced by the
enforcer plugin, rather than maven core itself.
Btw, besides CI builds, another use-case in favor of including SNAPSHOTs in
ranges is IDE integration; we have a project consisting of multiple
inter-dependant modules and having them resolve to each-other using ranges is
very convenient, rather than updating the POMs everytime one of them is
released.

> The following is equates to true:
> VersionRange.createFromVersionSpec( "[1.0,1.1]" ).containsVersion( new
> DefaultArtifactVersion( "1.1-SNAPSHOT" ) )
> The attached patch only allows snapshot versions to be contained in a range
> if they are equal to one of the boundaries. Note that this is a strict
> equality, so [1.0,1.2-SNAPSHOT] will not contain 1.1-SNAPSHOT.
