90% of the discussion on the previous thread was on version numbering, which 
never came to a conclusion.  Based on your RC candidate I assume you chose the 
separate version numbering, but starting from the same 2.2.0 base number.

I agree this is the only viable option[1], but I wanted to point it out here to 
be clear we're choosing this rather than there being questions next time we 
release something on what the number should be.

1. Support for my statement that this is the only viable option:
a) Tying together the version numbers of Hive proper and the storage API undoes 
exactly the independence we're trying to enable here.
b) Lefty's concern that Sergey's solution will make a hash of the JIRAs is a 
deal breaker for that one.  It also will be harder to truly separate these in 
the future if Sergio is correct and this eventually evolves into a proper 
sub-project or separate project.
c) Other projects with this same issue let their version numbers move 
independently (e.g. datanucleus)
d) Our pom files will give us the mapping of how the versions fit together.
