One side of me goes on date based numbers for tarballs: 20090228 etc.

How this translates into X.Y.Z numbers....

MAJOR.MINOR.DATE

Odd Minor = dev

even minor = stable.

i.e. for stable releases: 7.2.1 is a bug fix

for dev release: 7.1.20090228 is a release.


Which would mean it's possible to distinguish between stable and dev
tarballs quite easily (which pure date based versions don't allow).


thoughts?
