That is what $Revision$ CVS tag does, version number is totally
different thing IMO.
Sorry, but I disagree on this one. You might either think that an
extension "version" defines either its api as accessible by the php
kernel or as accessible by the php coder, but that's exactly what
version numbers are used for.
The cvs tag is for people that compile from source and have to
report an error against a a specific version.
I really think that PECL <-> Core relations and generally extension
versioning should be very high up on our agenda. Ideally someone like
you Tony, who actively maintains an extension both in PECL and core,
would write up a proposal (I can do the wording if you provide me
with the necessary content). This way we would have a discussion
basis. Alternatively/in parallel maybe the people meeting in Paris
could sit down and talk this item over a bit?!?
