It definately sounds strange to me, but without debugging through that
code it's hard to say for sure.

Came across this one while investigating
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MVERSIONS-19
This is a strange one...
in versions-maven-plugin:
http://mojo.codehaus.org/versions-maven-plugin/xref/org/codehaus/mojo/versions/api/DefaultVersionsHelper.html#186
We ask the ArtifactMetadataSource to give us a list of available
versions... that is this method:
http://maven.apache.org/ref/current/xref/org/apache/maven/project/artifact/MavenMetadataSource.html#495
This method creates a RepositoryMetadata object of type:
http://maven.apache.org/ref/current/xref/org/apache/maven/artifact/repository/metadata/ArtifactRepositoryMetadata.html#31
This metadata object is passed to the RepositoryMetadataManager:
http://maven.apache.org/ref/current/xref/org/apache/maven/artifact/repository/metadata/DefaultRepositoryMetadataManager.html#58
Which asks the RepositoryMetadata object if it is a snapshot...
http://maven.apache.org/ref/current/xref/org/apache/maven/artifact/repository/metadata/DefaultRepositoryMetadataManager.html#69
but our metadata object can never be a snapshot:
http://maven.apache.org/ref/current/xref/org/apache/maven/artifact/repository/metadata/ArtifactRepositoryMetadata.html#81
So the end result is that we never look in repositories which have
releases disabled... not sure if this is a Maven bug or if we
should be using a different method.
i.e. if I have:
<repository>
<id>my-snapshot-repository</id>
<name>My Snapshot Repository</name>
<url>http://my.repo/snapshot^ </url>
<releases>
<enabled>*false*</enabled>
</releases>
<snapshots>
<enabled>true</enabled>
</snapshots>
</repository>
then my-snapshot-repository will never be searched, but if I have
<repository>
<id>my-snapshot-repository</id>
<name>My Snapshot Repository</name>
<url>http://my.repo/snapshot^ </url>
<releases>
<enabled>*true*</enabled>
</releases>
<snapshots>
<enabled>true</enabled>
</snapshots>
</repository>
then it will!
Should I raise an issue against Maven or is this just a case of
calling the wrong method.
