The original plan was the change the version to something like
"2.1.0-incubating-SNAPSHOT", only because other incubating projects seemed to
do something similar. However, John pointed out that we don't actually need to
have 'incubating' in the version--it's only required in the source tarball that
is released. I think it makes things cleaner and easier to not have it (e.g. it
doesn't inject "incubating" into the binary artifacts), and it's consistent
with our old versioning scheme. For these reasons, i figured we just not
include it in the version and make sure it's included when we do a release.
