    Yes.


This may have been suggested before. I take this question of mine as an occasion to point out the usefulness of semantic versioning (http://semver.org). For some reason, H2 increments the third digit for what are really minor releases, not patch releases. As a user, I would *not* expect the whole storage engine algorithms to change in a third-digit-upgrade release. I would only expect riskless bugfixes and very minor feature increments.

Specifically, since these two releases seem to be intended as "beta", why not name them "beta" as well in Maven Centra to clearly communicate this intent?
