[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (JBBUILD-727) Nexus: closing a staged repository with SNAPSHOT dependencies should fail validation

Nexus: closing a staged repository with SNAPSHOT dependencies should fail validation ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key: JBBUILD-727 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBBUILD-727 Project: JBoss Build System Issue Type: Enhancement Components: Artifact Repositories, Sonatype Reporter: Geoffrey De Smet Priority: Critical A Non-SNAPSHOT pom should not have any SNAPSHOT dependency. If it has, then then it's behavior continually changes because it's SNAPSHOT dependency gets new releases. So it's not a immutable release, so it's not a release. Note: a timestamped snapshot (6.0.0-201201028000-456) is not considered a SNAPSHOT. Maven central synchronization and BREW/MEAD do this validation. But apparently jboss.org's nexus doesn't. It should. Now, when we make such a easy mistake in our poms, it's caught very late in the game and it takes a lot of effort to clean up.
