Note that my version of the proposal has the same effect of a single epoch
(maybe, it won't always be necessary), followed by sane dates, it's just
pushed off into the future as long as possible. I am *not* advocating never
changing and incrimenting the epoch each release. I just want to make sure
we're clear on what I'm proposing.
