Jeff Black commented on MCOMPILER-67:
-------------------------------------

The workaround (or permanent solution, I'm not sure yet) is to define the 
compiler plugin in your pom with an explicit version, <version>2.0.2</version>.

Surely there has to be a better way to say "For all the standard plugins that I 
use and do not specify a version for, please use the latest release version, 
and never a SNAPSHOT version".  Defining all the plugin versions, even in a 
single parent pom, seems unreasonable to me.  Why would the default be to use 
plugin SNAPSHOTS?  Doesn't this create a fragile project structure?

What is the best practice way to have a rock solid project, isolated from 
deployed SNAPSHOT plugins?

> All of my compiles using Maven have failed, and they were previously working
