Neither can I :-(. Internally we support now version less artifacts. But our 
notation does not allow to express this. Sorry for this. Obviously we are not 
happy with this.

What you can do meanwhile as a work around:

compile(":commons-logging:na") { version = '' } // The notation requires a 
version, otherwise we get a parsing error. In the closure we can overwrite what 
has been generated out of the notation.

Obviously this is ugly. But at least it works. Expect this to be fixed in our 
next release.

- Hans
