+1 This really the only viable scheme I've seen used over the years. It's how we do it at Sonatype and it's never been an issue that the public version is shown with some -build number. We will want to ensure that only one release version gets published though to reduce confusion. Since everything is staged, this should happen normally. For plugins, which are commonly referred to by users in their poms, this might turn out to be a problem as it increases the maintenance load but I think we start trying it and if there is an issue we go to an alternate approach. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@maven.apache.org
