I would ask that the geonode folks tag the release they need as a patch
release (even just to the nexus repo).  Depending on a snapshot is a
terrible practice, and if you must it should be handled with a git sub
module.

The geonetwork folks depend on a snapshot revision be having a git sub
module, and building (for example geotools) as part of full build.
