The WiX v3 build number has the form MMdd, where dd is the current day of the 
month and MM is the number of months since we started counting: 01/2005 = 01, 
01/2008 = 37, 07/2008 = 43, etc.

The WiX v2 build number has a similar form but the counting started with a 
different month.

Subject: [WiX-devs] Origin of the Wix build number


I have been looking through the source in the zip file, and have not been able 
to determine how the include files which contain the build number are being 
generated by the build system.  Currently I am using major upgrades to handle 
the removal and installation of our tools for testing during our development 
process, but the version is being updated manually.  I'd like to "borrow" the 
technique used by the toolset so any help would be appreciated.
