An option could be to add a checkbox labeled "I am an Apache Flex SDK
developer" above the SDKs combobox and show the "Nightly build" option if
selected but please don't change the version pattern or whatever, I'm
already annoyed because the build number is no more set to 0 on the dev
branch.

It won't be a problem with the installer as we know the user choose "Nightly
build" but it is one when out of the installer, when one prepares the dev
branch to work on an IDE and wants to run the maven converter on it.
Before the converter was able to create a SNAPSHOT version based on the
build number set to "0", today is not, it creates a release instead which is
not convenient.
One have to remember another step replacing  the build number to "0" before
running it, it seems nothing but it is a waste of time when forgotten and
indeed it is not documented.

Happily with the installer maven feature, there will be a way to make a
SNAPSHOT based on the user choice.

Were is it pickup up the version from? The develop branch should have all
versions at 4.11.

Thanks,
