Hi everyone,
Just a reminder - whenever some build tooling is released, the normal sequence
of things is:
1) a snapshot "deploy" to repository.apache.org is done prior to the creation of
the release. This allows people to continue to depend on the snapshot at its
latest level.
2) the release is posted for review, and voted on. Then the "release" button is
pushed (if the vote passes). This causes the release artifacts in the staging
repository to be uploaded to Maven Central.
3) Sometime after the release has been uploaded, the deployed snapshot is
automatically "cleaned up" (that is, deleted) by the Nexus.
Because of (3), after the release happens, any poms that depend on the snapshot
versions of the build tooling need to be updated to the release versions so they
can continue to build.
