I think we could drop it. I believe Solr uses it to make sure the
tutorial on the website clearly states what version it is discussing.

I'm rather confused by {$specversion} in build.xml and what the
release how to has to say about it:
The wiki currently says:
# Update the version numbers in build.xml:
## specversion should be set to `X.Y.M.${dateversion}`, where
X.Y.M is the release being made.
## version should be set to `X.Y.N-dev`, where N is one greater
than the release being made.
I interprete that as:
# Update the version numbers in build.xml of all modules in trunk:
## {{specversion}} should be set to `X.Y.M.$\{dateversion\}`,
where X.Y.M is the release being made.
## {{version}} should be set to `X.Y.N-dev`, where N is one
greater than the release being made.
# Update the version numbers in pom.xml of root and all modules in
trunk:
## {{version}} should be set to `X.Y.M-SNAPSHOT`
# Update the version numbers in build.xml of all modules in the
branch:
## {{specversion}} should be set to `X.Y.N.$\{dateversion\}`,
where X.Y.N is the previous release made.
## {{version}} should be set to `X.Y.M`, i.e. remove -dev.
# Update the version numbers in pom.xml of root and all modules in
the branch:
## {{version}} should be set to `X.Y.M`, i.e. remove -SNAPSHOT.
Could that be right?
