Right now, -SNAPSHOT is the best solution as it's reasonably well understood. 

However, there are camps out there that will tell you that -SNAPSHOTs are the 
work of the devil and that you should not under any circumstance depend on an 
artifact that can change. I'm yet to see to practical solution from this camp 
though. What is usually promoted is to timestamp your development builds and to 
depend on specific timestamps.
