Hi,

as part of MNG-4893 [0] an inconsistency in the way a version string is treated as a snapshot or release was detected. In short, the issue is about what suffix exactly marks a snapshot version.

The current intention is to revise the logic such that the suffix "-SNAPSHOT" (note the leading hyphen) and not just "SNAPSHOT" is required to denote a snapshot.

This mail is meant as a heads up for users that unintentionally use irregular SNAPSHOT versioning and allow them to adjust their builds. If changing the builds to use "-SNAPSHOT" isn't possible, we would like to hear the technical reasons for this.

Thanks


Benjamin
