David Hoffer commented on MNG-3092:
-----------------------------------

I'm assuming that's just a sarcastic comment...the feature only works fine if 
not used.  This feature, as specified, would be very useful and a big boost for 
Maven...not sure if the other newer build systems solve this problem or 
not...seems Maven should.

> resolution of version ranges with non-snapshot bounds can resolve to a 
> snapshot version

> Contrary to the 2.0 design docs:
> "Resolution of dependency ranges should not resolve to a snapshot 
> (development version) unless it is included as an explicit boundary."
> -- from 
> http://docs.codehaus.org/display/MAVEN/Dependency+Mediation+and+Conflict+Resolution#DependencyMediationandConflictResolution-Incorporating%7B%7BSNAPSHOT%7D%7Dversionsintothespecification
> The following is equates to true:
> VersionRange.createFromVersionSpec( "[1.0,1.1]" ).containsVersion( new 
> DefaultArtifactVersion( "1.1-SNAPSHOT" ) )
> The attached patch only allows snapshot versions to be contained in a range 
> if they are equal to one of the boundaries.  Note that this is a strict 
> equality, so [1.0,1.2-SNAPSHOT] will not contain 1.1-SNAPSHOT.
