-----------------------------------------------------------------
@Sergei, everyone has different view to look at the problem. We have gone back
and forth on this behavior a couple time.
I totally agree with Tuomas where he has mentioned in last paragraph, it will
be very tedious for SNAPSHOT range removal before releasing and resetting after
releasing.
Agree with your idea and can release patch where User can pass property in
maven command -DuseSnapshotInRange=false and it will exclude all SNAPSHOT from
range, the default behavior is true, in that case we will have backward
compatibility as well. It will not impact the existing behavior.The problem
what I can see here is if we have range defined in parent POM then you need to
ask reference POM to use this new parameter else it will pick latest SNAPSHOT
if available in repository.

If you all are agree on it please vote for it and will fix this bug.

> Key: MNG-3092
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3092
> Project: Maven 2 & 3
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Dependencies
> Reporter: Mark Hobson
> Assignee: Jason van Zyl
> Fix For: 3.1.1
>
> Attachments: MNG-3092.patch
>
>
> Contrary to the 2.0 design docs:
> "Resolution of dependency ranges should not resolve to a snapshot
> (development version) unless it is included as an explicit boundary."
> -- from
> http://docs.codehaus.org/display/MAVEN/Dependency+Mediation+and+Conflict+Resolution#DependencyMediationandConflictResolution-Incorporating%7B%7BSNAPSHOT%7D%7Dversionsintothespecification
> 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.
