Sergei Ivanov commented on MNG-3092:
------------------------------------
There is no 'right' way to fix this issue in a sense of choosing one and only
one option. Implementing it "as the spec says" will make it totally unusable
for other people (including us), who rely on certain aspects of the current
behaviour. That is why I am saying that we need a proper solution that will
allow a greater degree of configuration. I stand by my opinion that the control
of snapshot resolution should be external to the POM. In that way, one could
use different resolution strategies in different environments (within IDE, on
CI server, for release builds) without the need to make changes to the POM
itself. For reference, let me link it back to one of my previous posts here:

> (development version) unless it is included as an explicit boundary."

> The following is equates to true:
> VersionRange.createFromVersionSpec( "[1.0,1.1]" ).containsVersion( new
> DefaultArtifactVersion( "1.1-SNAPSHOT" ) )
> The attached patch only allows snapshot versions to be contained in a range
> if they are equal to one of the boundaries. Note that this is a strict
> equality, so [1.0,1.2-SNAPSHOT] will not contain 1.1-SNAPSHOT.
