Cannot pull timestamped SNAPSHOT dependencies from remote Nexus repo

[mitchellhwright]

When a SNAPSHOT dependency is only available in a remote repo it fails with the error:

message: 'download failed for http://nexus.core.cvent.org:8081/nexus/content/repositories/public/com/cvent/automation/automation-starter/region_t2-SNAPSHOT/automation-starter-region_t2-SNAPSHOT.pom (package.json) [status: 404]',

If I these SNAPSHOTs are pulled down to my local repo it works fine because SNAPSHOTs are not timestamped in the local repo.

With Maven 3 the option to turn timestamped SNAPSHOTs off was removed so it seems it will need to parse the maven-metadata.xml to find the correct file names to download.
