> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-7221
> Project: Maven
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core
> Affects Versions: 3.8.2
> Reporter: Enrique Arizón Benito
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: waiting-for-feedback, wontfix-candidate

> +underlined text+SNAPSHOT versioning is an excellent idea that solve many
> problems, still many people do not understand them, mostly because they do
> not have the time to read the related documentation or just get confused by
> blogs with incorrect information.
> After working with many developers with different skills and experience I
> have found that replacing SNAPSHOT by FUTURE offers a much more intuitive
> idea on how to use the maven snapshots.
> IMHO, allowing for nomenclature like "v1-FUTURE" as an alias for
> "v1-SNAPSHOT" will boost the perceived usability of maven to many non-expert
> developers.
