OK, I've set up the nightly builds so that they deploy the Maven artifacts to 
the snapshots repository at http://download.terracotta.org/maven2-snapshots .  
The -SNAPSHOT designator is being used for the core artifacts, but not for 
the config modules.

Taylor, the reason for having a separate snapshots repo is that right now we 
cannot put the -SNAPSHOT designator on the config module JAR files because 
the modules loader doesn't currently support this naming scheme, and as you 
mention above we would have name collisions without this -SNAPSHOT.  If or 
when the modules loader is enhanced to support -SNAPSHOT versioning, then we 
probably wouldn't need the separate repo, but someone else might be able to 
give other reasons for having a snapshots repo separate from the main repo.
