I do not see a major problem in theory with this 
as the version numbers are far apart.

I do believe that we might want to do snapshot, beta and other releases
in between so the development note:

is suboptimal.
Think about if we want to release Kolab Server 2.1.1, then a version
number like 2.1.99 is confusing.
So I suggest to change the version number to $(OLD_VERSION)-cvs and add a date
after this for a tarball, if possible.
