I think it will be safer to start a new qualifier series to make sure
that version is properly sorted. Something like 2.3-c01 instead of
2.3-b100. Wait for Romain to comment.

We use bXX in glassfish, because we promote once a week and assumed a
release to not take more than 99 weeks. Looks like the assumption may
not hold good for GF 4.0 itself, so we have to fix it for GF 4.0 at some
point. May we should use 3 digits for build numbers starting from next
release.

Thanks for reverting,
