Hi, The OSGi core spec defines the Version as a quadruple 1.2.3.string. The first three parts are numeric and called major, minor and micro version number. The fourth part is a string (with a limited character set) which is called the qualifier. Version comparison is in terms of comparing each v

I'm wondering when we follow the supposed version guide if our current versions are correct: 2.0.0-incubator-snapshot uses an even micro version, but it should be an odd one (as it is a snapshot) :) So it seems that we have to break the rule for an initial release :) Carsten -- Carsten Ziege
