I've chatted with Jason about this a couple times.   The basic opinion is that 
ANYTHING that goes off of your personal PC and into a "public" space MUST be 
clearly delineated as being an incubator podling.   For maven artifacts, that 
involves the version number (or group ID, but generally the version number is 
better).   Someone just browsing the snapshot repository should clearly see 
that these jars are incubating.

Now THAT'S a good question.   I'd go either:
 1.0-incubator-M2
or
 1.0-incubator-alpha

Enjoy!
