Finally decided to check this out and this might be a stupid question but 
how do I when building this release, convince it to insert a version other 
than 0.0.dev0? 
When I subsequently try to pip install {stuff that needs mezzanine}, it 
insists on complaining about my 'older' release.
Is there a step or package I'm missing?  Also, can't wait to see how things 
evolve!
