>> .devN, aN, bN, cN, rcN, <no suffix>, .postN ok, cool. my concern was that the general nature ".dev" might be lost, but it's not.
i.e. what Toshio was talking about last year when he said: "People were very clear that they wanted to be able to stick dev versions in the middle of their attempt to release alphas, betas, rcs, and finals." i.e. stuff like this "1.0a1.dev1". as for existing projects using the top-level "X.Ydev" form (i.e. no "."), I guess whenever they end up rebuilding a dist using a tool that's writing 1.3 metadata, I guess the hope would be that those tools would warn or fail and say, "you need to convert your scheme..."
