Hi, I intend to release maven-sling-plugin 2.1.8 (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING/fixforversion/12334142). Unfortunately currently the POM contains a dependency towards a SNAPSHOT version of org.apache.sling.commons.json. The according commit, which changed that version is http://svn.apache.org/r1713420 from Stefan Seifert.
I fail to understand why it was upgraded and there was also no JIRA issue number referenced in the commit. As far as I can see the not yet released version of o.a.s.commons.json 2.0.18 does not contain any fixed issues: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING/fixforversion/12334141. What was the reason why the snapshot dependency towards the newest o.a.s.commons.json was introduced? I would appreciate whenever a dependency to the latest SNAPSHOT is added the relevant JIRA issue number would be referenced in the according commit. Otherwise this may block releases. Thanks, Konrad
