sounds like you want version ranges
[1.0,2.0-!)

I need to read over the bug that was linked as a duplicate more
closely but
I don't think it's the same thing.
What I asked for was the same as what you said with 1.0-LATEST.
Doing something like that or 1.0-RELEASE would actually be very
beneficial
to people that know that minor releases won't break backwards
compatibility
but will allow for more features without having to keep changing
versions.

Having the release plugin translate these values at release time
_before_ the validation build and tag is the only sane way to use
them.
I currently have never use them because they aren't repeatable.

Having said that, it makes no sense to have the release plugin care
about LATEST, because by definition, building against LATEST isn't
repeatable, and in order for there to be a release, you need the
build
to be repeatable.
I think this does impact the release plugin as it could offer the
ability to resolve the LATEST version at release time. These builds
would be reproducible because the release plugin tags the poms during
the release process.
I think what you're saying is that the build prior to the release
build
is not guaranteed to have the same dependent artifacts as the release
build. I care about the release build being reproducible.
