0.9 is development yet and 0.7 is legacy but stills in development.
We have 3 versions in development right now, even that we don't have a nginx-0.7 in OBS the name nginx-0.8 is for parallel installation (we shall get a 0.9 as soon as It get stable). And then you will be able to choose between 0.8 or 0.9 series...
As Marcus already wrote the package is not prepared for parallel installation at all. None of the contained files is in a versioned subdir. There's still the option to put other versions in versioned subdirs and keep 0.8 as the recommended one. In that case the package should simply be called "nginx". If at some point in time another version is the stable, recommended one that new version can be put in the "nginx" package, obsoleting the old, versioned package. I've never seen any package putting a dot in it's name though so the convention for the versioned package should be to replace the dot with an underscore, similar to the shared library policy. IOW mv nginx-0.8 nginx mv nginx-0.9 nginx-0_9
