Hi guys,

infra (Joe Scheafer) did some massive cleanup on people.apache.org maven repository, deleting all the SNAPSHOTs older than 30 days (and I think a crontab task will be activated to do so every month).

Many mails has been excahnge don the infra mailing list about it, with some very valid points made : this is not a place where SNAPSHOTs should remain forever.

I looked at MINA SNAPSHOTs :
http://people.apache.org/repo/m2-snapshot-repository/org/apache/mina/mina-core/

We have dozens of them, for versions which has been released years ago. Is there a need to keep those SNAPSHOTs at all on people.apache.org anyway? Directory project is using maven from day one, wand we never stored SNAPSHOTs on people.apache.org, so I'm wondering if it's a good idea to do it for MINA...

In any case, we should not have any SNAPSHOT for a release version, that's for sure !

thoughts ?
