I would very much like to move everyone to semver (in practice a subset that is compatible with the file naming conventions, you probably won't get far if your version contains a dash -). The setuptools behaviour is the most practical scheme in use in the Python community. I've made most of the suggested edits to the PEP. It hurts to have multiple version schemes in concurrent use.
