**[Benjamin Bentmann](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=bentmann)** commented The metaversion LATEST is meant for plugins only, not for regular dependencies. For normal dependencies, you should be able to reach the same effect via [version ranges](http://docs.codehaus.org/display/MAVEN/Dependency+Mediation+and+Conflict+Resolution#DependencyMediationandConflictResolution-DependencyVersionRanges). As for `updateReleaseInfo`, I believe the general idea is that if one doesn't want to mark a version as release, then don't enable `updateReleaseInfo`. Usually, `updateReleaseInfo` is only set inside a dedicated release profile that users activate on demand during the release process. Having said this, I feel this issue (and the related one) should be closed as "Won't fix". -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
