jdo2-api jar - follow Maven2 naming best practices
--------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JDO-512
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JDO-512
             Project: JDO
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: api2
            Reporter: Chris Beams
            Priority: Minor


Currently, the jar for the jdo2-api maven build is named jdo2-api-SNAPSHOT.

In accordance with maven naming/versioning best practices, this should be 
jdo2-api-2.1-SNAPSHOT.

This will allow users to declare dependence on the api in poms as follows:

<dependency>
    <groupId>javax.jdo</groupId>
    <artifactId>jdo2-api</artifactId>
    <version>2.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
</dependency>

When 2.1 is officially released, they can then transition these declarations by 
simply removing the '-SNAPSHOT':

<dependency>
    <groupId>javax.jdo</groupId>
    <artifactId>jdo2-api</artifactId>
    <version>2.1</version>
</dependency>

I've submitted a patch to JPOX's Maven2 pom files that assumes this change; 
it's submission is dependent upon the jar name being changed here in Apache JDO 
first.

See the related JPOX forum thread here:

Thanks,
