Replacing a SNAPSHOT with a non-SNAPSHOT version is equivalent to upgrading.
Jason is right in that this should never be automatically done by Maven.
Maven cannot guess or determine when you are ready to give up SNAPSHOT
versions.

However, perhaps you need an external batch process that discovers new
versions and automatically upgrades POMs.
