Hi Christian,
As we don’t maintain a stable public API, we usually update all the plug-in versions at the same time. I’m supposed to do it this week for Luna plug-ins (And it’s already been done for Kepler ones). We don’t have a planning for public APIs (And other Luna requirements) yet, but it is unlikely to happen before M4 or M5. Papyrus APIs have been moving a lot since the first version (Helios), and now there is a lot of work to do to clearly define the APIs.
So, until then, you can choose either 0.10.1 or 1.0.0. Everything will be updated to 1.0.0 really soon anyway. Features are updated at the same time, with the same policy (i.e. all features/plug-ins have the same version number).
This policy will change after 1.0.0. We’ll most likely rely on API tools and follow the standard Eclipse guidelines.
Regards,
Camille

Hi, Team,
Currently, all of the Papyrus bundle manifests on the Git master branch declare plug-in version 0.10.1 (as on the maintenance branch).
What is the team's policy for updating these versions? Do we make the appropriate update on first change to a plug-in project? Or, does somebody do a bulk update in the ramp-down of each milestone? (or release?) How about the "trickle-up" to containing features?
Luna intends to be release 1.0. I assume that means that all of the existing plug-ins will be updated to version 1.0. When will that happen? And until then, what should I do for
- bundles that shipped in Kepler and that I am changing on master?
- new bundles that I am adding for Luna release in master?
I actually have a new bundle ready to push for Papyrus Search in CDO repositories, so I need to know whether it should be version 0.10.1, 0.10.100, 0.11.0, or 1.0.0. And also what the concomitant update of the oep.extra.cdo feature version should be.
Last, on the subject of graduation to 1.0 ... One of the requirements of graduation is that the public API be stable. Currently, there are only a few Papyrus bundles that distinguish internal and external APIs; almost none apart from the CDO plug-ins and a few core infrastructure plug-ins. What's the plan for API?
