Version number in POM?

I'm wondering, if the version number 1.1-b01-SNAPSHOT isn't an overkill?

IMO 1.1-SNAPSHOT may be enough if 1.1 was the next possible Soteria release.
The "b01" doesn't really show up anywhere in Eclipse Version Numbering (which may be slightly influenced by RCP and plugins but generally stands for all projects) Milestone builds like "M1" or "m01" which we also had in Soteria pre 1.0 are common at Eclipse but usually as a release tag only, see Eclipse Collections 9.2.0.M1. The master branch has 10.0.0-SNAPSHOT in its POM, so either 1.1-SNAPSHOT or 1.1.0-SNAPSHOT sounds more appropriate here.

Plus the current master of Jersey also says 2.28-SNAPSHOT not "2.28-b01-SNAPSHOT".

I think that beta sufix was put there by Oracle during the release process, with no apparent reason. I'm +1 with using just SNAPSHOT
