[orbit-dev] How do we version-number unreleased W3C Working Drafts?
|
Hi, all,
I am back to looking at the Orbitization of Apache Batik 1.7 again,
and have a new question.
Batik 1.7 has a JAR named batik-ext.jar which includes the original
W3C sources of a working draft of the 1.0 version of the DOM Level 3
Events API. Version 1.0 is still in the WD phase at W3C, not yet
released. I'm hoping to bundle this as an org.w3c.dom.events bundle.
So, my question is what kind of version number do I put on this
package (it is only a single package) and, hence, the bundle? From
one WD to the next, W3C makes incompatible API changes, so they really
are quite distinct.
I propose 1.0.0.draft20060413_qualifier
This ensures that it is alphanumerically before an eventual
1.0.0.qualifier for the released version (which would start with "v"
in the qualifier segment) but also correctly sorted relative to other
WDs.
While we're at it, are there any opinions concerning how to name
bundles that deliver different levels of the DOM APIs? Should I use
something like org.w3c.dom.events.level3?
Thanks,
Christian
