the second you do this you're gonna get bugs filed saying that you didn't sort the versions the way the user intended... how do you sort 'a1' vs 'b5' vs 'rc1' vs 'z7'? it is all a mess as far as I'm concerned.

For ruby2c, I released 1.0.0 beta 1-5 which I versioned as 1.0.0.1 to 1.0.0.5. It seemed to work fine for me so far... I intentionally didn't do any alphas or rc's etc. but I wanted to be clear that it wasn't a clean 1.0.0 release.
