Sorry for the confusion. Yes, in fact it is. It's the same cloudmonkey and
is aimed to work with Apache CloudStack 4.0.0-incubating and its
derivatives. If it does not it's a bug.

We're gaming the version number, since cloudmonkey-4.x was already out
here, it would create confusion if we release cloudmonkey-1.x. Therefore,
it made sense to just start with 5.0.0 and use semver from this version.

Regards.
