Hi there.. Glad to see that you're starting with maven..
A SNAPSHOT version defines work in progress. It's good practice to use a version like "1.0-SNAPSHOT" when you've net yet reached the "1.0" milestone release. As soon as you've reached your milestone and released a "1.0" version, you start working on version "1.1-SNAPSHOT" for example.. When you see a POM or artifact with "SNAPSHOT" in its version, you know it's work in progress and the build results might not be reproducible. If you stick with this versioning pattern maven will check all your dependencies and alert you when you have SNAPSHOT dependencies before allowing a release to succeed. This is again to prevent unreproducible builds.. If you want to learn more about maven, check the website's documentation and mergere.com's "Better Builds With Maven" ebook which is full of tips to get you on your way quickly..

But I don't know what does "SNAPSHOT" means on version part. What is "SNAPSHOT"?
