You manually put the jars in your Maven repo through its manual upload
procedure with some version number (nice if it relates to the version
that the authors gave them) and reference them as dependencies.

That's 13 jars to be built from their sources, and 10 jars that they
bundle as external dependencies.
And since they're in pre-beta, I want to do that on a more-or-less
daily basis.
Are the 10 external dependencies changing each day?

Extremely rarely, but since changes there aren't announced anywhere, I have to act as if it might change any day.

Who is building the 13 jars?

I can choose, they're delivering the sources as well as precompiled jars.
No source jars though, so I'll just svn checkout/update in the generate-sources phase and let the standard compile etc. mechanisms of maven do their thing. Sounds easier than explicitly configuring an attach-sources etc. goal.

How are you going to use SNAPSHOTS in the pre-beta phase?

I build my project based on that.
Whenever I hit a bug, I submit a bug report, which usually gets fixed.
Since my own project is months from a release, that's okay. If I find I'm nearing release before the external project doesn, I'll probably drop the SNAPSHOT qualifier and hardcode a known good pre-beta revision.
