Before I was accepted as a maven committer I never used SNAPSHOTs plugin to
build my project.
Now, most of my projects use SNAPSHOTS (timestamps) because some desired
feature has been fixed either by applying a patch or by making myself the
required change. Calling for a vote on a plugin I'm not familiar with and
with no idea of the roadmap is not easy.

IHMO this is a side effect of SNAPSHOTs : if you're confident with the
codebase and how to change it, you don't really require a release... some
more "automatic" release process would encourage them.
