-----------------------------------------------------------------
The "ban" would be enforced at build-time only. Integration testing would be
possible either by deploying the artifact using the OSGi console/JCR installer
or by skipping the enforcer plug-in configuration.
We previously had SNAPSHOT versions in the starter and it was (IMO) a pain:
- builds were not reproducible
- Starter releases were hard since we had to either roll-back (and miss out on
bugfixes) or release (which took a long time for dozens of modules)
- releases themselves were hard to manage in the starter
-- initially we had version X.Y.Z-SNAPSHOT in the starter
-- for the release, we moved to X.Y.(Z+2)-SNAPSHOT since the older SNAPSHOT
was deleted by Nexus
-- after the release we moved to the released X.Y.Z+1
-- for the first change we moved to X.Y.(Z+2)-SNAPSHOT
My answer to testing problems would be to make it easier to test the starter
with a certain SNAPSHOT and also to automatically run it for pull requests.
