Is there a way to specify a particular SNAPSHOT version?

Hello,

I have a maven project A which is dependent on another maven project B. 
Both project are under active development, so project A is depending on 
the SNAPSHOT version of project B. But I don't really want project A to 
pickup every new snapshot version of B, but pick up a new snapshot version 
only once in every 2 weeks or so. Is there a way in maven to specify a 
particular version (or build) of the snapshot  version of project B to be 
used in project A build? . E.g. We could say use the version built on a 
particular date or some thing like that. 

Thanks
Gopal

You might be able to do this by setting the snapshots updatePolicy of  
your settings.xml to "interval:XXX" (XXX in minutes).

You can use the snapshot timestamp as version, i.e.
<version>123455645365.1123-4</version>
