maven version range resolves to SNAPSHOT

[Mike Power <mp...@dodtsair.com>]

I was trying out maven version ranges in a sandbox project.  According 
to the documentation I found at 
http://docs.codehaus.org/display/MAVEN/Dependency+Mediation+and+Conflict+Resolution#DependencyMediationandConflictResolution-DependencyVersionRanges 


It says "Resolution of dependency ranges should not resolve to a 
snapshot (development version) unless it is included as an explicit 
boundary"  I assume what this means is that the following version would 
resolve to a snapshot:
<version>[1.0.0-SNAPSHOT,2.0.0-SNAPSHOT)</version>
and that this version would not resolve to a SNAPSHOT:
<version>[1.0.0,2.0.0)</version>

However when I list out the dependency in a test I get the following 
when using <version>[1.0.0,2.0.0)</version>
1 [main] INFO com.sample.unreliable.Unreliable - 
jar:file:/home/mpower/Workspace/continuous-quality/unreliable/target/unreliable-1.9.0-SNAPSHOT.jar!/version.properties

It used a SNAPSHOT version even though my version specification contains 
no mention of SNAPSHOT.
