@Julian,

it does seem confusing in this special case, let me explain why:
1. at the time we had the discussion, 0.4.0-incubating PPMC vote had not
finished, and therefore I was not quite sure if it's the appropriate moment
to create the patch for .jar files. So, that's why EAGLE-378 came later
than EAGLE-377.
2. conventionally, we used to make a pull request bound to a jira ticket,
so that's why I created the ticket just before the commit. If this is not a
good manner, I will try to avoid it in the future.
3. EAGLE-377 was created based on the result of our discussion, and
pointing to 0.5.0 as its "fix version", which could be seen as a bug-fix
plan for 0.5.0.

Thanks for pointing the problem out.

Michael
