Specify latest version in a dependency?

Is it possible to specify the version for a dependency simply as the
"latest" something like '0.0.0':


  <dependencies>
    <dependency>
      <groupId>some.groupid</groupId>
      <artifactId>some.artifact</artifactId>
      <version>0.0.0</version>
    </dependency>
  </dependencies>

or is that not supported in maven?

You'll want to look into version ranges, but be warned, they can be evil
and affect reproducibility.

Just working against a SNAPSHOT keeps you up-to-date on internal stuff.
