+== Snapshot builds
+
+You can access the latest development snapshot by using the Maven repository
+`https://repository.apache.org/snapshots` and the current SNAPSHOT version.
+Generally, the master branch will use the next patch version as its snapshot
+version regardless of what the next actual version of Log4j will be. For 
example,
+if the latest release were `3.0`, then master would be using the version
+`3.0.1-SNAPSHOT`.
+
+To enable snapshots you'll need to enable Snapshots repositories in your build 
system.
