Sorry, not clear to me.  Should I add a "v" prefix to the version field?

I see a bunch of packages packages have "v" prefix:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
./gnu/packages/perl.scm:3599:    (version "v2.49.1")
./gnu/packages/perl.scm:7969:    (version "v0.0.2")
./gnu/packages/perl.scm:8697:  (version "v0.2.13")
./gnu/packages/networking.scm:778:  (version "v0.003")
./gnu/packages/mail.scm:1755:  (version "v2.9.0")
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
