Yes, you need to set -
        <uniqueVersion>false</uniqueVersion>
for the snapshot repository, even though this should really be set in the top-level apache.pom that everyone inherits.

For now, the following should be added to the Genesis pom.xml that the server inherits and into any subproject that doesn't use Genesis as its parent pom -

    <distributionManagement>
        <repository>
            <id>apache.releases</id>
            <name>Apache Release Distribution Repository</name>

<url>scp://people.apache.org/www/people.apache.org/repo/m2-ibiblio-r
sync-repository</url>
        </repository>
        <snapshotRepository>
            <id>apache.snapshots</id>
            <name>Apache Development Snapshot Repository</name>

<url>scp://people.apache.org/www/people.apache.org/repo/m2-snapshot-
repository</url>
            <uniqueVersion>false</uniqueVersion>
        </snapshotRepository>
    </distributionManagement>

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)?
