Right. I was hoping to avoid that question
for now, but since you asked...
 
The main motivator for this version bump
is that we are tentatively planning to convert facets api to use generics for
2.0. The PMC is going to be discussing this at tomorrow’s meeting and
more details about rollout/testing will follow after that. Since this would be
a fairly significant “feature”, a bump in the second digit seems
appropriate by the Eclipse version convention. Consistent with the version
convention, the change will be source and binary compatible with 1.4 and 5.0
clients (except for those clients who were very pessimistic about version
ranges – which appears to be all of WTP).

Incrementing plugin version for facet.core and facet.uiplugins
 
 
Hi Konstantin, 
I'm
sure these changes are compatible, but can you explain in more detail what
changes require you to upgrade the second digit?  We'll be happy to
upgrade dependent versions, but would be more comfortable 
knowing
the changes in store. 
Thanks

I need to increment the version of
org.eclipse.wst.common.project.facet.core and facet.ui plugins soon from 1.1.x
to 1.2.0 to correctly reflect the type of work happening in these plugins for
the 2.0 release. Before that change can be made, the referring plugins need to
have their version ranges adjusted. At this point, range [1.1.0,1.2.0) is used
which fails to match the new version. This affects both references to the
facet.core and facet.ui plugins. In the case of the facet.core plugin, the
range should be set as [1.1.0,2.0.0) since that plugin does not export any
internal api. The facet.ui plugin does export internal api, so references to it
should use [1.1.0,1.3.0). 
 
The
following plugins are affected. Please let me know if you’d rather make
this change to your plugins yourself. Otherwise, I will update these plugins in
bulk in the next couple of days.
