They're both there. It's up to you when you want to "upgrade" to it by changing your endpoints, scripts, clients, etc. to take advantage of the new API. There will be further refinements in Havana, but v3 is here now.

As such you would use "http://<host>:5000/v2.0/" for v2.0 and "http://<host>:5000/v3/" for the v3 API. Other services have chosen to include or exclude the ".0" as they see fit. Unfortunately right now you just have to look up what the proper numbering format is for a particular API.
