I honestly don't see why we have to update our version numbers to beat the
rest of the pack. The way I see it we should have a two sets of version
numbers standing for minor and major releases.
For example, Debian-1.1 is updated from 0.93R6 because is had major changes
(ELF conversion etc). The next version should be 1.2 because I doubt that
anything "big" will happen. If it does, then it should be 2.0 if you get
my drift.
As for being behind the pack, I don't see why. Updating versions can also
mean that there is something terribly wrong with that distribution. I
think the way we're going now is spot-on, but, that's just my opinion.
