No, I think 1.2.1-SNAPSHOT on trunk is ok as long as there is no release. The "1_2_1_RC" (normally) is a working copy branch(!) that is used to prepare the release without disturbing concurrent development. BTW, why is "1_2_1_RC" a tag? It should be a branch of course. Leaving the version on trunk unchanged gives the release manager the chance to throw away this working copy branch and start over with a new copy from the trunk. "textbook example": As soon as the release is out, all important fixes and changes on this branch (including the pom updates to "1.2.2-SNAPSHOT") will be merged back to the trunk. --Manfred
