I think this has been discussed before but why can't we have commons-collections-2.1-SNAPSHOT? There are some projects which will have multiple development versions. Torque, for example, has 3.0.1 and 3.1.

I made a tool for the last maven release that uses these mappings to interactively resolve all snapshots in a project.xml file. You can actually do this interactively or just let maven go to town and do it for you. We are actually trying to build things too, we realize snapshots can be hazardous to your health but we know that. We have tried to make snapshots convenient to use during development and easy to resolve for release. -- jvz.
