Re: PW#5-15: Package versions based on dates
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
I agree that the proposed text is better than nothing, but it is still too
weak.
Even if we keep upstream source numbers untouched, it would be a good
thing to encourage upstream authors to use YYYY-MM-DD because it
is an ISO standard for dates.
Therefore we should consider "foo version number is not yyyy-mm-dd" as a
legitimate bug (wishlist type, if we want), that should be forwarded
upstream as a suggestion to upstream authors.
Moreover, I think we should use the standard for *all* our own packages.
Thanks.
