Hi Rob,
snapshots are not releases and there is going to be a release of Fuseki in 
Apache.
Users should use releases.

Developers can help us testing stuff and snapshots are one way to do make that
easier. Developers should know where the snapshots are or the sources (and how
to compile/package stuff). The jena-dev mailing list is there also to help
developers wanting to contribute to Jena.

That is a bit black and white between users and developers. Using snapshots is OK - currently while we're in migration, but also generally, to track the evolution of a module.

I'm happy for people to use snapshots.

(and, yes, generally, I use Jena snapshots myself!)


The Jena website is aimed at users and Jena users are the main target audience.

Thanks Paolo

Would it be possible to have pointers to snapshot downloads placed on the 
incubator website or are these just on a page I didn't find?

http://incubator.apache.org/jena/download/maven.html#repositories

if you're mavneing, and not downloading the distribution, you'll need to add the repo to your maven settings:

I use:

  <profiles>
    <profile>
      <id>apache-repository-snapshots</id>
      <repositories>
        <repository>
          <id>apache.snapshots</id>
          <name>Apache Snapshot Repository</name>
          <url>http://repository.apache.org/snapshots</url>
          <releases>
            <enabled>false</enabled>
          </releases>
          <snapshots>
            <enabled>true</enabled>
          </snapshots>
        </repository>
      </repositories>
    </profile>
  </profiles>

  <activeProfiles>
    <activeProfile>apache-repository-snapshots</activeProfile>
  </activeProfiles>

Is there a download URL for up to date Fuseki snapshots, I thought there was 
but I can no longer find a working download?

For example searching Fuseki 0.2.1 gives 
http://openjena.org/repo-dev/org/openjena/fuseki/0.2.1-SNAPSHOT/ as the top 
result but it now gives a 404
Here:
https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/snapshots/org/apache/jena/jena-fuseki/
