Public bug reported:

If you look at the fglrx package for raring:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/raring/fglrx you can see it's numbered 9.010.
But this, unfortunately, doesn't tell much which version it is, as AMD
(usually) releases drivers with YEAR.MONTH naming scheme. The only easy
way to find out when the driver was released is to
use:http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Category%3aReleases

Why this numbering is used? I think it's very confusing.
