I think its better to have a timestamp and to create full nightlies - not just snapshot jars, but full timestamted source and binary tarballs as we used to. FWIW, I think it is better not to push snaps into maven repos, but rather to place tarballs in a location where the sources and jars can be downloaded and unpacked. This is to emphasize that the reason we are providing them is for developers to look at the sources and test with the jars, rather than to encourage "snapshot dependencies." If the machine account problem has been solved from vmbuild to p.a.o, this should be pretty easy to automate. I may have old scripts around somewhere that worked modulo this problem.
