Actually, the strategy was to always make the version number a patch release.
It really didn’t matter what the version number was though. When I ran the
release plugin I always specified the release version so all the pom versions
got updated regardless of what they were.
I would prefer that the CI system determine the release number based on what is
in the changelog. That simply means we need to have enough enumerations to
handle all the cases and be able to classify each enumeration as either patch
or minor.
