Ever wondered why the version of oVirt's first release is 3.0.0_0001? The answer is simple - We use ovirt-engine jar's version as our "main" release version.
Personally, I think the current versioning scheme is ugly. Actually, I can't name even one open-source project using "_" in it's version.
What can we do about it? We have couple of options: 1. Leave the engine alone, and use a separate versioning scheme (e.g - use just 3.1.0 as the main version for next release) 2. Remove "_" from engine jars 3. Do nothing.
I'd like to hear your thoughts, as well as the reasons to use such an unusual versioning scheme.

From my point of view using the 0001 suffix in the names of the jar files is not a big problem, but I agree that using it in the release number is ugly, and it produces issues/discussions during packaging. I vote for option #1: use 3.1.0 for the next main version.
