The issue

The Opensource project ONAP uses a "global" version number like 9.0.0, 10.0.0, 11.0.0, 12.0.0, which applies to all components. This approach contradicts the cloud-native microservice concept and doesn't adhere to true Semantic Versioning (SemVer),  because the ONAP community uses only MAJOR to increase the Number for each Major release, like Jakarta for 9.0.0, Istanbul for 10.0.0, Kohn for 11.0.0 and London for 12.0.0. Minor is used one time for each release for a Maintenance release, like 9.1.0 with is Jakarta Maintenance release.

Our Goal:

We aim to adopt the Twelve-Factor App methodology that promotes semantic versioning and provides benefits of granular versioning, precise dependency management, and clearer communication for each major release.
