I like it, except may I suggest that we drop the "1r" bit?

In other words, just do this for development releases:

  3.9.4048_arighi instead of 3.9.1r4048_arighi
  3.9.4053_bli
  3.9.4058_focht

Then, when we do a stable release, it turns into:

  3.10.0
  3.10.1
  3.10.2
  Etc...

Cheers,

-Brian
