A little bit about versioning, quite many distributions[a] has adopted '~' in version numbers. It has a very special meaning: '~' sorts before '' meaning that 4.7.4~beta1 is less than 4.7.4~rc1 which is less than 4.7.4 which is less than 4.7.4-beta. and of course 4.7.4~~snapshot-2012-12-12 is less than 4.7.4~ (on a side note, 0~ is positive and less than zero :) If we adopt the same magic character with the same meaning, it would hopefulyl help in exactly telling what we do. E.g. is 4.7.1-SNAPSHOT a 4.7.1 prerelease or a snapshot of the 4.7 branch after 4.7.1 ?
