nothing prevents you from doing the same thing, our maven repo is
synchronized with the external world, it's not like we are hiding our
binaries.

but don't you see it from the build-error like the one you have
above ? I mean somehow the failure to upload is not silent so why
don't you catch it while doing the mvn deploy ?

yes, once you have turned to crank on a version, if anything happens,
fixes, wrong upload, you name it, you *must* bump up the version
otherwise you inflict a lot of pain to everyone.

In the meantime, I will talk with Jane and Kohsuke, I think that
through branching and some hudson support we could automate some
safeguarding around binary integrations.
