there are probably better ways these days):

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