But then, "-beta-SNAPSHOT" is reasonably common occurrence, so I don't
see what's wrong with "-ea-SNAPSHOT".
In my eyes, "EA" or "beta" and "SNAPSHOT" carry different meaning.
SNAPSHOT just means the bits without any guarantee, but when something
is called beta or EA, I expect certain quality.
So I take "ea-SNAPSHOT" to mean "a work in progress toward the next
1.4.1 EA".
