quoting from:
http://incubator.apache.org/guides/releasemanagement.html
Naming
Apache releases should contain the full name of the project responsible
for the release. This ensures that trademark law can be used against
others issuing artifacts with the same name.
For example, one good name for product bar Apache Foo Project would be
|apache-foo-bar|.
Once a podling graduations, it should adopt this naming convention.
Whilst in the incubator, practice is a little different. The release
name should contain the podling name and may contain apache. Incubator
policy insists that it must also contain |incubating| (though small
variations for the sake of readability are usually acceptable).
For example, for podling foo, both |apache-foo-incubating| and
|foo-incubating| would be acceptable names.
------------------
apache-etch-blah-incubating would seem to be indicated for all our
artifacts, with etch-blah-incubating being an acceptable alternative.
i'd rather the version be at the end myself (except for source, where
you take off .jar and stick on -src.zip.
many projects i've looked at use the blah-ver.jar syntax:
velocity, junit, various ant tasks, commons, dom4j, jakarta, log4j,
stax, wstx, etc.
the majority have it last when it appears at all.

I think it needs to be 1.1.0-incubating rather than incubating-1.1.0.

so there was a discussion awhile back about artifact names. since we are
trying to get this right in
release 1.1...
currently we build artifacts named like this:
etch-ant-plugin-1.1.0-src.zip
etch-ant-plugin-1.1.0.jar
etch-compiler-1.1.0-src.zip
etch-compiler-1.1.0.jar
etch-csharp-compiler-1.1.0-src.zip
etch-csharp-compiler-1.1.0.jar
etch-java-compiler-1.1.0-src.zip
etch-java-compiler-1.1.0.jar
etch-java-runtime-1.1.0-src.zip
etch-java-runtime-1.1.0.jar
etch-xml-compiler-1.1.0-src.zip
etch-xml-compiler-1.1.0.jar
i'm thinking this needs to be something like this:
etch-ant-plugin-incubating-1.1.0-src.zip
etch-ant-plugin-incubating-1.1.0.jar
etch-compiler-incubating-1.1.0-src.zip
etch-compiler-incubating-1.1.0.jar
etch-csharp-compiler-incubating-1.1.0-src.zip
etch-csharp-compiler-incubating-1.1.0.jar
etch-java-compiler-incubating-1.1.0-src.zip
etch-java-compiler-incubating-1.1.0.jar
etch-java-runtime-incubating-1.1.0-src.zip
etch-java-runtime-incubating-1.1.0.jar
etch-xml-compiler-incubating-1.1.0-src.zip
etch-xml-compiler-incubating-1.1.0.jar
right? wrong?
