I am +1 on the idea because of the more regular latest snapshots.

They've recently setup the hudson instances to allow them to deploy snapshots
to the Nexus instance using a special "snapshot" account. Thus, we could now
have automated builds that do deploys of snapshots. We couldn't really do
that previously without giving out some authentication stuff so this is kind
of a big deal.
So, are we interested? The only "downside" is the snapshot URL's that people
may be using would need to change to:
https://repository.apache.org/content/groups/snapshots/
which would affect some people.
However, they would get updates on a daily basis, which is probably also a
good thing.
I guess I'd like to hear from the users that might be using the snapshots.
How annoying would it be to update your URL's? (Note: that URL also proxies
the original snapshot repo so you would UPDATE your pom/repository manager,
not add a new repo) Would having more consistent snapshots help you?
