Re: [ebxml-cppa] Question about versioning and ebXML CPPA TechnicalCommittee Teleconference April 5 Minutes and Notes

[Pete Wenzel <pete@seebeyond.com>]

I would favor numbering it 2.0 now (when first subjected to public
scrutiny), indicating that it is significantly different from 1.x.  If
a 2.01 results after feedback, that would help alleviate the ".0
syndrome", reassuring users that the bugs have already been worked
out.
