You know what, I didn't test by changing the timestamp on a jar in our
(internal) remote repository.
I just ran a project build consecutively on my desktop and watched if the
SNAPSHOT dependency
caused the jar to be re-loaded every time; it didn't.
I'm going to re-test by touching the timestamp on a jar in our repository
and check it out.
Thanks for the tip.
