Description

It looks like many (most?) Apache Java projects are now versioning jar filenames (i.e. blah-2.1.jar vs. blah.jar). Axis is still using unversioned jar filenames. Is there a reason for not switching to versioned filenames? IMO, jars w/ versioned filenames are much less error-prone for the projects utilizing those jars. As a side benefit, versioning jar filenames also eliminates the need to rename the jars before publishing them to a Maven-style jar repository.
