I haven’t been able to locate any definitive ASF documentation on the format 
for release tags and things seem all over the map.  Justin?

What do we want for Edgent?

The release-1.0.0 process currently has us using “apache-edgent-X.Y.Z” - 
fallout from following the lead of the suggested Apache Flex project.
Note, per policy our tgz bundles are “apache-edgent-X.Y.Z-incubating-*"

These tags show up in GitHub so they’re somewhat prominent (e.g., see the 
“releases” tab for a project). 
They’re always within a project’s context - so the “apache-<project>-“ prefix 
seems like a bit of noise to me.

I’m inclined to use the "vX.Y.Z-incubating” form.

Your thoughts?

[ ] vX.Y.Z                                      Spark, Storm, ...
[ ] vX.Y.Z-incubating           Beam, predictionio …  (not uniformly used by 
all incubating projects)
[ ] X.Y.Z                                       Kafka, …  don’t know if some 
incubating ones use X.Y.Z-incubating
[ ] release-X.Y.Z                       Flink, samza …
[ ] cassandra-X.Y.Z                     Cassandra, …
[ ] apache-edgent-X.Y.Z         Flex, …  (nominally matching the naming of 
release bundles)
[ ] apache-edgent-X.Y.Z-incubating              
[ ] <another variant>
