Olaf, 
you are right, I had it wrong, I checked on IRC , and the sequence is 

1.2
1.3-SNAPSHOT
1.3

This probably means that RC1, RC2 etc are not meaningful in this schema.


SNAPSHOT is a Maven special keyword. 
What is special about SNAPSHOT is that it will go off and get the very latest build.

Using POST is fine, but is new to this project I think.
