perhaps that should have become 3.00 ?

Lazarus *3.99* (rev main_3_99-41-g3d8dd85474) FPC 3.2.2 x86_64-linux-gtk2

You are looking at trunk, the development version. See :
https://wiki.freepascal.org/Version_Numbering#Lazarus_3.0_and_newer

You might want to add some explanation for this new versioning scheme to that page.

Added.

I made some improvements, hope it is even more clear now.

The graph does not help.

From what is currently there, I don't understand neither the logic nor the need of this change.
"Need"... Well, in terms of "because it solved the issue xyz" => then there is no need.

Basically, version numbering is all about "marketing". By always increasing major version we tell to the general audience that major release indeed contains major changes (which is always the case).

So we solve/improve "marketing" issues.

BTW, in my opinion FPC has similar issues and will benefit from such approach to versioning too.
