Hi Lundo,

The current version implementation allows major and minor version labeling. A minor revision incrementing in the way you are seeing at the moment and a major revision incrementing the first part of the version label (for example 1.0, 2.0, …)

At the moment this function is not visible through the UI, but this has been raised and will be resolved before the 1.1 release.

If this style of version labeling is not appropriate for your needs it is possible to write your own version label generation code and use Spring to configure it. If you need some further details on how to do this let me know.

Hope this helps,
Roy

I suppose that in the next release the Version Notes are displayed as well.
