These are the guidelines we're using:
OK. Thanks for the info. Sounds reasonable.
when, say, I have a dependency on "racket/places", and want to
specify the minimum Racket version I require (i.e., "5.2" rather
than "5.1.2").
The best way to deal with these is to use a precise version number
(even if it's an unreleased four-part version) with the result of
`version->integer' from `version/utils'.
I guess I don't mind sounding encylopedically nerdy when I later tell
someone, speaking from memory, "Ah yes, Places support was added in
*version five dot one dot two*," with a precision cadence for each part
of the version number. It beats having to say goofy Ubuntuesque version
names like "Rambunctious Rabbit": "Affirmative, sir. Staging servers
have been validated with Racket version Randy Rottweiler, and are ready
for production deployment."
