No it will be still possible but not anymore mandatory to provide snapshots for early adopter users. This group https://repository.apache.org/content/groups/snapshots-group/ will serve the most "fresh" SNAPSHOT from thoses places : * https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/snapshots/ * https://hudson.apache.org/hudson/plugin/repository/everything I don't have karma in the nexus instance but this snapshot groups looks to serve SNAPSHOT too from a proxy called maven-snapshots-sonatype. But sure it will be usefull if people/users use the snapshots group and not directly the snapshot repo where snapshots are actually deployed. > > /niklas > -- Olivier Lamy http://twitter.com/olamy http://www.linkedin.com/in/olamy
