I'm pretty sure the ReleaseTodo page is wrong on this. Building from a source distribution should *not* produce artifacts that have the same version in their names as the binary release. We don't want same-version-but-different binary artifacts being accidentally produced. There's nothing stopping people from changing this themselves, of course, so leaving the pre-release version name, including the "-SNAPSHOT" suffix, in the source release is just a passive defense against this kind of mistake. I'll change the ReleaseTodo page if there are no objections. Steve
