I thought Lars and even one or two others agreed on a slight change in the
system. Something like changing 1.x.fixY to 1.x.Y. I agree with the idea,
because the only things that go into fix versions are things everyone should
get. So folks will be told to download the latest x and Y, which is a pretty
intuitive and simple system. (Even more intuitive and simple than the Linux
kernel system, IMO!)
Anyone who's curious about pre/cvs/whatever versions can take the time to
read the files describing the naming/numbering system. Which brings up
Asger's second point. No, I'm not volunteering for the job.
