Good point. I have to admit that I was reading "1.08.xx" same as 1.8.xx; the leading 8 is just there to make sure that 1.08.xx sorts before 1.10.xx. > Now an obvious solution would be to use 2 as the major number.

Should we go for 2.x.x anyway? > Another, maybe trickier, issue is: you won't be able to cleanly number > interim releases if you encounter a really serious bug right after > you've produced this month's release, will you? Well, we can always use EXTRAVERSION to add some additional name, as we do all the time for our -rc? prereleases.
