Huh? You don't want to share dependencies anywhere?

Sorry, what's the distinction wrt to Maven?

You realize that the deployment of a SNAPSHOT produces a timestamped
version? You say you don't like the SNAPSHOT but again you don't say
why.

The release plugin does this: manipulates the POMs, bumps versions and
resolves SNAPSHOTS to their timestamped values before a release so you
have real versions for everything before deploying.
