I agree with Jonathan. With my non-packager, mostly-non-developer hat on, i think that keeping the versions lock-stepped follows the principle of least surprise for Shorewall's users. It might save hours of effort for developers & packagers by not having them lock-stepped, but it will save hundreds of hours of confusion and dozens of questions on the mailing list if we keep it the way it is.
