Thanks, that is exactly my opinion and what I tried to explain by showing
how many Web Frameworks Apache has in this "Darwinist" approach.

The master POM builds all Data and Java artifacts right now, so unless a
different version was required, everything that's there (in reality we are
at "1.0.0-SNAPSHOT" till someone finally creates a TAG) could be part of a
"1.0.0" release tag.

Or is there a review process based on concrete archives? Reza zipped them
AFAIK, but there is no equivalent SVN tag neither for /data nor for /java.
The internal version number in every XML file does not match the intended
release goal (1.0.0 instead of 1.0)
I don't think parsers or client API so far does a version check, but
ideally that should match in any case.

I can tag the data repo. When it is clear what should be part of 1.0.0
somebody also has to do the same in the /java subtree, and should the .NET
port by Eberhard be stable and in sync with the Java client, ideally that
should also have a matching version.

thoughts?
