I rolled back the change until we get some consensus on how to use
version names.

I agree that version names are probably not useful very much for our
users. At best, they might fill in the 'Component' field. We are not at
a point where we are drowning in bug reports and need more structure in
the process.

My proposal would be to 

a) change the name of the slingfeature-maven-plugin to 'Apache Sling
SlingFeature Maven Plugin' or 'Apache Sling Feature Maven Plugin'
b) Update the new Jira versions accordingly, e.g. 'SlingFeature Maven
Plugin 1.4.6' for the unreleased one.

I think the version name is descriptive enough for reporter that choose
to select it and also brings around consistency in how we handle Jira
versions.

Thoughts?
Robert
