+When you are working with git, your new DeepaMehta repo should always start with 'dm4-',
+eg. 'dm4-my-fancy-plugin'. The minor-version number is not part of the repo name.
+
+But the Maven Artifact (jar file) should include the minor-version number, to display the
+compatibility with a certain DeepaMehta release, eg. dm48-my-fancy-plugin-0.1.jar or 
+dm48-my-fancy-plugin-0.2-SNAPSHOT.jar . Usually a dm48- artefact needs adoption, to be 
+compatible with the next major version DeepaMehta 4.9.

 From the developer's view a DeepaMehta plugin is just a directory on your hard disc. The directory can have an arbitrary name and exist at an arbitrary location. By convention the plugin directory begins with `dm4-` as it is aimed to the DeepaMehta 4 platform. The directory content adheres to a certain directory structure and file name conventions. The files are text files (xml, json, properties, java, js, css) and resources like images.
