One way around this, *might* be to publish / consume snapshots

In my vision, the better approach is to publish into maven central repository only the released versions of bundles.
Bundles that are part of any M# or RC# should be deployed using a full timestamp (ex: 4.7.0.v2017040112000 ), but into a different
repository, a snapshot only one.
Sonatype provides one: https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots/ and its process is described here
(http://central.sonatype.org/pages/ossrh-guide.html)
I've not seen much guidance on *how* to use the OSSRH snapshots repo.
In particular: if someone references a repo with
<snapshots><enabled>false</enabled></snapshots>
how exactly must a snapshot be marked in order to remain invisible?
Consider a company repository manager standing between you and
the outside, i.e., you can't directly turn on/off your connection
to OSSRH snapshots, but need to excluded snapshots in a given build.
In that repo I see artifacts like this:
https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots/org/eclipse/tycho/org.eclipse.jdt.core/3.10.0.v20140528-1959-SNAPSHOT/org.eclipse.jdt.core-3.10.0.v20140528-1959-20140625.081446-8.jar
which exhibits two variants of the version: directory mentions SNAPSHOT,
artifact expands that to a time stamp. Is this artifact enabled/disabled
by the <snapshots> element? If so, then this could help avoid the problem
I mentioned in my first mail.
best,
Stephan
