Number like 5.99 is unambiguous (and more clearly points to the next number, 6.0). Like this, my other suggestions were that the latest or the next release tag wouldn't be used at all for development versions. The reason is that it would be clear and unambiguous for all possible purposes. To add to the original suggestion: -dev ending could be added to make it even more clear that it's a development version, but can it create problems for Linux or other package numbering schemes? Probably not, 5.99.0-dev is smaller than 5.99.1-dev if 5.99-dev would be used for a release candidate. I wouldn't like using 5.99.0 and then 6.0-rc1 because in alphabetical order 6.0 comes before 6.0-rc1. Therefore 5.99.0, 5.99.1 etc. would be the easiest and least ambiguous solution. Eeli Kaikkonen
