Here are some guidelines for versioning : http://incubator.apache.org/guides/releasemanagement.html#best-practice-versioning

I know Akara likes to use dates for release names and the guidelines above certainly don't preclude it. I checked the existing incubator projects and they're all using the /major.minor.point/ system of versioning. If we follow this convention, our first release will be 0.1.0. The advantage to this is that if we make only minor changes and/or fix bugs we can simply update the point (to 0.1.1). This naming gives the user some idea of the level of changes that went in.

Does anyone else have a suggestion or opinion on the above ?

A month sounds like it's doable, or should be! I think we already have a planned release structure in the repo. Now for the toughest question, how do we want to number the releases?
