Is there? If so, which char? Normally one substitutes the dots by '_' or '-'. Still tags may not start with a digit but must begin with a letter. Maybe you want to use what is described in the Cederquist manual: prefixing the version-numbers by the name of the project (CVS version 1.9 would become cvs1-9, cvs-1_9, ...)
