Good stuff! But shouldn't this version be called '2.3.0' (assuming it's
backwards compatible with 2.2.2, but adds new features)?
This is called semantic versioning ( http://semver.org ). It's something
that Lua itself has always followed, and ideally LuaRocks should also
follow and officially recommend for all rocks, like they do in the NodeJS
ecosystem: http://semver.npmjs.com
It would make the whole ecosystem more sane.
Cheers
