Hi -

Release Policy is such that publishing a snapshot to a public, open repository 
is not allowed.

See http://www.apache.org/legal/release-policy.html#release-definition 
<http://www.apache.org/legal/release-policy.html#release-definition>

If we want to produce Alpha and Beta then we will need to VOTE on these. Or, we 
can let our users and dev know on the Mailing List where to find snapshots. We 
can put something in the RELEASE NOTES and I think there is something on the 
website. We could add a note on how to hack a user’s .m2 directory to put a 
SNAPSHOT into their maven builds.

Alternatively are we using GitBox so that the repos is on GitHub? If so then 
they can fork on GitHub to test.

Regards,
Dave
