I have recently had to ask for a rogue collections snapshot to be changed to
point at the 3.0 release. This had been creating a negative impression of
collections.

Consider this just my opinion, that it would be nice to have snapshots
clearly separate from releases (two directories in the repository for
example).

In this particular case, I am happy for Mario to put a collections snapshot
in the Apache repository, but hopefully collections 3.1 will be along soon
anyway.
