Just for my own curiosity... why do we need the @since tag?
What benefit does it provide the product/code?

I must be honest that I've never been a supporter of the @since tag. Imo,
release notes and features should be the paper trail that we provide. Also,
how would we handle a scenario where a class is denoted with @since 6.5.x
and all internals of that class are completely new and replaced with 8.2.x
or even 9.0 (or 1.0 Geode) code?

I think that @since tags become like comments, without somebody changing
things, they just become stale and stagnant. I cannot think of many open
source projects that use @since tags.

But if we must have them in the code base then I prefer to have them as a
Geode x.y.z

Adding the GemFire makes it obvious where the feature came from, no
inference
required as would happen if we left just a version number for old @since
annotations.

If we keep the pre-existing @since tags, then I'd prefer to add
"GemFire"
to them for better clarity. Thus, @since 4.0.0 would be changed to
@since
GemFire 4.0.0. Just my preference.

And we can leave current @since tags as-is with out "GemFire" to denote
predate Geode.
So if you see "Geode x.y.z" => added in Geode
                               or   "x.y.z" => Predate to Geode (i.e.,)
GemFire.

@since GemFire x.y.z is probably not all that useful from a Geode
perspective, but maybe important in GemFire source, particularly for
features that maybe specific to GemFire, or predate Geode.

Hi,
We have a lot of @since tags in our javadocs with old gemfire
versions. I think we are going to keep them in there, we should maybe
do a sweep and add gemfire to the version:

Eg
@since GemFire 5.5

For geode @since tags, we can start from 1.0:
@since 1.0

Or maybe it would be better to be explicit?
@since Geode 1.0

What do you guys think?
