i think we agree at the two enpoints -- from user side, they are *not*
required to supply a version; and in back-end everything *does* have a version
wherever possible. so if user specifies "MySoftware" brooklyn internally
srtores that it is MySoftware_1.0.1 or whatever.
it is the mapping in between that we are unsure of. i don't like the
999.0.0 idea -- it is nice in some ways but feels an ugly "magic numbers" hack
in others. i also don't think that the intermediate/alias needs to be
versioned -- as that is *not* what is stored (ie the alias is resolved at
deploy time and not used anymore thereafter). that should simplify things a
big?
