For developer builds, the full version includes the time stamp. This is reflected in the "javafx.runtime.version" system property. For release builds, the time stamp is replaced with the build number. We've never included a time stamp anywhere else, and I don't see much need to add one without a good reason.

Would a inclusion of timestamp within generated META-INF\MANIFEST.MF allow
some 'timestamp" without impacting the generated jar name also be worth
considering?

In that case, we can probably remove the time stamp from MAVEN_VERSION
altogether in a follow-up fix, since it is never used for any released
version, including early access builds. Not a high priority though once
the entire publishing task is qualified by a property.

We have never had the need to publish snapshot versions. We do however
publish early access builds quite regularly (e.g. 15-ea+6) for the
versions that are in development.

     The proposed fix will be to disable the maven publishing tasks by
     default, and to not set the project.version at all. So this will
     decouple the maven publishing tasks, and they won't interfere with
     normal developer or production builds.

     Joeri or Johan can confirm, but if they ever do upload a bundle for
     testing, I'm pretty sure they would use a SNAPSHOT designation (set
     manually).
