I needed some time to digest all this myself ;) I've now done that and put it all into a HTML page. That doesn't imply it is the scheme we will finally use, but if so, it saves me some time. I have also described the development process a bit. I think this is vital for understanding why I need certain release numbers. The info is here (with the now irrelevant text at the end of the doc):
http://www.rsyslog.com/doc-version_naming.html I am still a bit undecided if we really need to go v4 or can start this (or whatever else) in the v3 branch... Feedback appreciated.
