Hi,
Thanks for your responses. I understand the idea. 
Here are my worries (I'll try to be clear).
I've got a multi-module project. A parent POM and childs (25). The first
time all the pom are in snapshot version. When I use the release:prepare
plugin, it create a snapshot pom for the parent and all the childs for the
next iteration. But some modules don't change for month and the plugin
increments unnecessarily the version at every release.
I prefer that developers change (create a snapshot version) the pom
themselves.
Thanks.
Rémy.
