Document the Tapestry release numbering system
----------------------------------------------

                 Key: TAPESTRY-2189
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAPESTRY-2189
             Project: Tapestry
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: Documentation
    Affects Versions: 5.0.10
            Reporter: Howard M. Lewis Ship


This was discussed in the list.

The consensus was a numbering scheme of 5.MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH.

PATCH changes are non-API changes (just internals and implementations).

MINOR changes are represent additions of new APIs.

MAJOR changes represent changing or removing existing APIs.

"5" is for Tapestry 5, we don't want this to change.

Also, even/odd numbering.  Even releases (5.0, 5.2, 5.4) are stable.  Odd 
release (5.1, 5.3, 5.5) are unstable.  When an odd release becomes stable the 
number is rolled forward one to an even number.
