There have recently been issues with the snapshot repository because it was running low on space and so any snapshot older than 30 days was deleted across the board. One reason given for the rapid growth in the repository size was due to projects using timestamped snapshots. It was stated that using timestamped repos in general was wrong for the apache snapshot repo. Geronimo uses timestamped snapshots.

Myfaces was listed as an example of doing things "the right way" (http://people.apache.org/repo/m2-snapshot-repository/org/apache/myfaces/orchestra/myfaces-orchestra-core/1.3-SNAPSHOT/).

Does anybody know how we can remove the timestamps (assuming they are not needed for any particular reason)?
