No response on the users list.

Should I file a bug for this or is it expected behaviour?

Subject: release plugin?

Hi all,
 
Why if I specify exactly what versions to use for release and
developement version for the exact module and specify the default values
does the release plugin still try (and fail) to parse the versions?
 
e.g.
 
mvn.bat -B -X -e -Dproject.dev.test:test=X_1.0.1-SNAPSHOT
-Dproject.rel.test:test=X_1.0.0 release:prepare 
 
(this is a single module project groupID=test artifactId=test)

Fair enoguh if I haven't parsed in any versions as this version is in
effect just a string qualifier (which is a valid version?) - but I have
been explicit so what gives ?
 
Would this be considered as a bug or would it be rejected due to the
non-standard version.
 
Regards,
 
    /James
