Hey, guys. We need to get our versioning sorted out. When I uploaded the first packages to my PPA, it was based on the packaging in the original git repo which read 0.3.0. Later on, after much merging around, it was bumped back to 0.2.2. Because of this the version of the packages in the PPA is currently 0.3.0+really0.2.2-something (because versions must be strictly monotonically increasing). I'd like to restore some sanity to this :)
So, we need to decide on the versioning scheme. I would have liked it if Swift and Nova would have the same version numbers. I would also have liked it if 1.0.0 was the version that were to come out in three months time with the first official release. However, seeing as Swift already has a 1.0.0 (and 1.0.1, I think) out, that's not going to work (since they'd have go back to 1.0.0 which makes everyone unhappy, or we'd all have to jump to 2.0.0 which seems odd). Also, more projects may join OpenStack later on with pre-existing versioning history, so I think it makes sense just to focus on Nova's versioning. As such, I'd like to propose that our first release, scheduled to come out in about three months, will be version 1.0.0. I'd also like to immediately bump the current version to 0.9.0, and have the packages in the PPA be versioned something like 0.9.0+bzrXXX-0ubuntu0ppa1 where XXX is the bzr revno of lp:nova.
