Again, the artifact-alias allows for users to upgrade prior levels of the plugins if they are installed. Since we're starting a 2.2.1 release countdown, I decided to put 2.2.2-SNAPSHOT support in now, so the plugins wouldn't be outdated in a month.
The jpa-tests are not an issue in this release, due to the newer genesis level and setup in the 2.2 server. The same changes for this codebase didn't work for the 2.1.3 plugins.... Don't know why, but after 2 days of trying, I gave up trying to fix the 2.1.3 build. -Donald On 4/28/10 9:58 AM, Joe Bohn wrote: > I don't see the same "big" issue with SNAPSHOT artifacts in this plugin > that I see with the 2.1.3 version - but I have the same question about > the need for SNAPSHOT references in artifact-alias entries.
