display-dependency-updates always reports newer versions for dependencies when 
using ranges

                 Key: MVERSIONS-98
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MVERSIONS-98
             Project: Maven 2.x Versions Plugin
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.2
         Environment: Rehat 5.3 linux
Maven 2.2.x and 3.0
versions-maven-plugin 1.2-SNAPSHOT, built from subversion trunk
            Reporter: Erik Schepers


The {{display-dependency-updates}} goal always reports new versions for 
dependencies that were specified with a version-range (in either the 
dependencies, or dependencyManagement section of the pom.)

For example, in my pom.xml I declare the following dependency with a range:
{code}
...
<dependencies>
  <dependency>
    <groupId>some.group</groupId>
    <artifactId>test</artifactId>
    <version>[1.0, 2.0)</version>
  </dependency>
</dependencies>
...
{code}

Say that the latest release of {{some.group:test}} is 1.2.41


Unleashing the {{display-dependency-updates}} goal on this pom, produces the 
following:

{noformat}
...
[INFO] The following dependencies in Dependencies have newer versions:
[INFO]   some.group:test .................................. [1.0,2.0) -> 1.2.41
[INFO]
...
{noformat}


This is not what I expected, since the latest version (1.2.41) is within the 
declared range of {{[1.0,2.0)}}.
