Summary
Please publish full three-component Docker tag aliases for OVMS releases
whose patch component is zero.
For example, OpenVINO Model Server 2026.3.0 currently publishes:
openvino/model_server:2026.3
openvino/model_server:2026.3-gpu
Please additionally publish:
openvino/model_server:2026.3.0
openvino/model_server:2026.3.0-gpu
Existing short tags should remain available for backward compatibility.
Motivation
Patch releases already use three-component tags, for example:
Consequently, consumers must alternate between two- and three-component
version tags when pinning exact releases:
2026.2.1-gpu
2026.3-gpu
- potentially
2026.3.1-gpu
This causes compatibility problems for update-monitoring and dependency
automation that compares tags with consistent numeric precision. It also
makes the Docker tag differ from the full version shown in the release
title, which is 2026.3.0.
Publishing full .0 aliases would provide a canonical exact-version tag
for every release while preserving the existing short aliases and
latest channels.
Expected result
Every stable release has an immutable full-version Docker tag:
YYYY.MINOR.0[-gpu] for the initial release
YYYY.MINOR.PATCH[-gpu] for subsequent patches
Short YYYY.MINOR[-gpu] aliases may continue to be published unchanged.
