Oh, I see where the confusion is.
No, Mir is not on daily releases because it affects too many other
projects and we need to manually coordinate ABI/API changes for each
release. Mir is on weekly-ish releases, all of which have proper version
numbers. Hence, only one tarball :)

I'm not sure where the suggestion of multiple upstream tarballs comes
from.
Do you bump the upstream version number between packages into going into
Ubuntu? As in - is there really only one code tree per-upstream-version?
It's not the case for most other projects under daily release, at least
- we only bump the version numbers when needed for dependency reasons
(or well, when it makes sense). Difference is we're not doing dev branch
vs. trunk, all code goes into trunk, and it's the release team that
ultimately decides when to release. Sure, we could bump after each
release, but that's what the automagic release does for us, effectively.
It's a kind-of-rolling-release scenario for us.
For iterations between upstream releases, we have the -NubuntuM suffix.
That's what it's for (!?).
Downstream releases, no? You can't change the upstream code between
differently-suffixed packages (other than putting patches in debian/,
that is).
