So we've flipped the behaviour back and forth now, yes? I think there are use cases for both types of behaviour.
If you are in snapshot mode yourself, you probably want snapshots to be resolved in ranges for your stuff (however we might categorize that, maybe groupId). When you're not in development mode you don't want to resolve snapshots in ranges. The one proposed solution by a user is to look at the version of the project itself to determine whether snapshots being resolved in ranges should be activated. For CI you probably want to consume your own snapshots for testing, but a misconfiguration of the repositories could potentially cause problems and you might get unintended snapshots. Having to change the range and append SNAPSHOT and then take it off before release seems annoying to me.
