My 2 cents worth: BSD uses numbers; e.g., 4.2.1, 10.0 Release #0 SUN-OS used numbers The kernel uses number with appending text. For example, my current Debian Wheezy kernel is 3.4.105-WMM.default So, for any system that maintains its version Via an RCS like coding, I would suggest something like Dng.x.y.z-keyname where keyname is an indication or purpose. For example, PAE-beta or PAE-default. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iF4EAREIAAYFAlT7M5EACgkQpY/BHpBmP2pQngD+LTQMpLQbMdYMS80+JZRaE4jt YpTioo+g6vSUovEDU4gA/2a1Qw4wzms9Vg3iDYItOIo/pT5Fmp4ZFBsODTLu3Svl =cBXE -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
