Re: [m2e-users] Archetype Snapshots

[Igor Fedorenko <igor@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

It is not currently possible to force archetype snapshot update from
m2e. There is workspace preference to honour repository update policy
(the default is to force "never" for all repositories), but it affects
all maven artifact resolution requests and turning it off will result in
undesired/unexpected snapshot updates during workbench restart, for example.
