That, IMHO is horse-pucky. IIRC, when it was introduced, it was
explained that decimal packages were for packages that did not have an
official release number. Decimal releases were for snapshots and cvs
downloads,
The whole "1mdk looks better in a release" is a big fat red herring
IMHO. The number of releases a package has had does not matter.

It is my understanding that 3.0.4 "proper" of RPM has not been released
which is why we are using decimal releases. Is that not the case?
