Thanks. We would be sticking to version numbers in the build names.

Stripping version numbers causes all sorts of problems, and isn't
recommended at all. Maven uses the version numbers heavily to make sure
code can depend on the right dependencies, and without them, you would
have no way to change or upgrade your code.

Actually the best procedure is to put the version number in both places.
The manifest is not always the easiest to get end users to find for
you, and files could be renamed by an end user... but typically if you
ask them what version they have it's easier if the jar has the version
number in its name.
