There's a legal reason for using incubating in the artifcat name[1], so the tarfile will still have that in there, the spec itself should be ok as 0.3 though. On graduation we'd need to change our names to apache-qpid instead of qpid- I do think we should also have a discussion about changing from milestones to regular (kernel/apr style[2]) numbering for everything though, s/M/0/ essentially. So perhaps apache-qpid-0.4.0 for the next one maybe?
