[ http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-5524?page=c... ] Steve Ebersole commented on HHH-5524: ------------------------------------- You are focusing on the specific time it would not be useful. What about when 3.6 goes Final? Now granted our (en)forced usage of the Final qualifier makes this logic very specific, but thats ok because this is a specific script. But at any rate, given 3.6.0-SNAPSHOT you guess the versions as : 3.6.0.Final and 3.6.1-SNAPSHOT. Now the releaser has to enter 2 values, the same 2 values they have to enter today as a matter of fact! Now given 3.6.1-SNAPSHOT (so after 3.6.0.Final has actually been released) the guess would be : 3.6.1.Final and 3.6.2-SNAPSHOT, *exactly* the values you would enter! I said its a "nice to have", so if you don't have time or don't want to do it then thats a different story and don't do it. But don't try to minimize its usefulness. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/secure/Administrators.... - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
