With #10, you got one more additional file to update when releasing new versions.
70bc57cc67e83b1c5f2b198019167897f4c9e3a2 shows you now have to edit 4 files to do a simple increment.
In other packages, we've managed to reduce it to just updating package.xml, with things like CMakeLists.txt and setup.py parsing it out of the manifest.

package.xml, with things likeCMakeLists.txtandsetup.pyparsing it out of the manifest.For a CMake example: ros-industrial/abb_robot_driver/abb_egm_hardware_interface/CMakeLists.txt (parsing the name might be a bit much/unneeded in this case).
setup.pywould be similar (parse it out usinglxmlor similar).That's all still ROS-agnostic btw, so it wouldn't affect non-ROS users.
