@neykov do we know anyone actually using maven to make brooklyn bundles
with a version syntax that will break it? i think it's far enough below the
radar i'm not concerned about it. we should log warns on non-recommended
versions (which i think we do, probably too much) but disallowing them now is
going to break backwards compatibility. also it's not uncommon that people use
OSGi versions directly in maven which will work fine in Brooklyn even though
it's not the recommended syntax. feels like it might be antisocial to prevent
that.
in short current approach -- have a recommended syntax, and warn but make
best effort if people not using it -- is best for now, and we can become
stricter in the next version.
