web2py uses semver <http://semver.org/>. I don't think we should switch to using year.month just to satisfy the case where you forget what version you were running when you developed an app (particularly since app development tends to be ongoing). There are other ways to tell which version was released when -- for example: https://github.com/web2py/web2py/commits/master/VERSION.
