It's certainly not needed. eg, all of these exist and are properly indexed: D/DM/DMUEY/Sub-Todo-0.0.3.tar.gz D/DM/DMUEY/Digest-MD5-File-0.07.tar.gz D/DM/DMUEY/XML-Atom-App-v0.0.5.tar.gz Approx 4.5% of distributions use a three-part version, but only about 1% also include a v in the version. -- David Cantrell | Nth greatest programmer in the world There is no one true indentation style, But if there were K&R would be Its Prophets.
