bq. they do not have the time to read the related documentation
But they do have the time to waste not to understand, don't they?

> Key: MNG-7221
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-7221
> Project: Maven
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core
> Affects Versions: 3.8.2
> Reporter: Enrique Arizón Benito
> Priority: Minor
>
> SNAPSHOT versioning is an excellent idea that solve many problems, still many people do not understand them, mostly because they do not have the time to read the related documentation or just get confused by blogs with incorrect information.
> After working with many developers with different skills and experience I have found that replacing SNAPSHOT by FUTURE offers a much more intuitive idea on how to use the maven snapshots.
> IMHO, allowing for nomenclature like "v1-FUTURE" as an alias for "v1-SNAPSHOT" will boost the perceived usability of maven to many non-expert developers.
