Or would it be 0.23.3-SNAPSHOT still? You can wait for 0.23.3 to clean up. The only odd part of that is that the 0.23.3 tag won't be on the branch-0.23. With Ant, we could just override the version on the command line. Clearly Maven is a little pickier. You could: 1. Set the version to 0.23.3 2. Check in 3. Make the tag 4. Set the version to 0.23.4-SNAPSHOT 5. Check in I'd also be ok with just waiting with 4+5 until the vote passes. Thoughts?
