 consider anything of version X without a minor version specified to be
 X.0 for forward compatibility.

Ping -- where can I find more information on activity numbering?

I chose 0.1-1.0-x.x style numbering because it reflects 1.0 being when
I believe the activity is ready for deployment. I hope this intended
meaning is preserved in any suggested version numbering standards.

Things that might be nice to also include on any activity numbering scheme:
- 1.0 is special - when to hold the release party
- testedness / ready-for-classroom?
- major / minor changes

Could you please cite the discussion leading up to the agreement you're
referring to?
