After a long time thinking that separately versioned specs were

trying to release separately versioned specs. I now think we
should at least try the one-version approach. What we've been
doing has resulted IMO in total confusion and many many problems
releasing specs.
In any case PLEASE think about this and make your opinion known soon.
My only caveat is that I would prefer to use 1.2-SNAPSHOT releasing
to 1.2 rather than 2.0. I tend to regard this as finally
straightening out what we are doing with specs, and lining up the
versioning and release with the directory structure, rather than a
major policy change. (now we have a policy rather than confusion :-)
I totally agree that 1 consisten spec version is the way to go.
I'd also prefer a 1.2, rather than a 2.0 release. However, I doubt
that I would devote too many keystrokes arguing the point...
