This looks perfect to me, and very unambiguous.  Allowing the .dev and
.post modifiers at every release stage I think clears up the issue
here better than any other proposal.  +1.

(This is also semantically the same as semver--just not syntactically
the same. I like semver but I think we're stuck with the existing
syntax which is fine.)
