Hi

- SNAPSHOTs are not released to anyone but yourself (or people downloading
straight from CI builds)
- alpha-beta are visible *only* on experimental update center
- regular releases are visible on public update center

If you are new in the dev community, I think you shouldn't worry yourself
with alpha/beta. Just use SNAPSHOT, then apply the regular release process
using the maven-release-plugin to produce a release version.
