Hi Reto
Currently all Stanbol artifacts that contain only data (e.g. a small
dbpedia index, language models ...) do not use SNAPSHOT versions to
avoid that mvn downloads such bundles for each build. Previously this
was important because such bundles required to execute a shell script
that downloaded/created the data before the build. Typically users had
not build such bundles but downloaded them from the Nuxeo maven
server.
Since some time all such bundles are now build as part of the normal
maven build and therefore I think we could easily switch back to
SNAPSHOT version.
The version change you mentioned was necessary because the data within
the dbpedia.default data had changed (additional languages, addition
of the english rdfs:comment field).
If we decide to switch back to use the -SNAPSHOT suffix should we than
use {currentVersion}-incubation-SNAPSHOT or would we need to increase
the version number?
best
Rupert
