It has nothing to do with the tools. The link to the Subversion docs was about how the project uses versions *itself*. YMMV. My only comment that I'd say is that you should never ever reuse the same version number. Once the RM creates the artifact and posts it for review, no changes should be ever made to the source. For most projects I'm on, as soon as the tag is created for the release in the SCM tool, that's it. But, there could be some leeway there - such as autoconf-style files, etc, etc. Even if the release fails the vote, you shouldn't be reusing that version again. -- justin
