Hi
I am new to maven and I also misunderstood about SNAPSHOT.
personally, I am not sure if I would want such a functionality. Having
the latest releases downloaded automatically is not always what you want
and could even be dangerous (what if the dependency project publishes a
backwards-incompatible release?).
I agree with what you pointed.
But I also have another view to this functionality.
What if a released component on remote repository has any bugs?
My role in a company is to provide components for colleagues. There are a lot
of developers, so it is very difficult to replace all buged components
on their desktop with bug fixed one.
If features of a component do not have to be changed to fix bugs, I think it's
useful to replace this bad component on local repository with bug fixed
component
on remote repository automatically (after agreement).

Katsuya Takahashi
