Way Confused about Version Numbers



Gad, I'm real confused.

I can roughly grok the difference between 
stable, unstable, etc.

But what's this business of "2.2r3" and "2.2r4"?

How does this relate to the version number 
"2.2.18pre21".

Where does "potato" leave off and "woody" begin?

What's with the 2.4.x kernels?  Where do they 
stand in relation to "potato" and "woody?"

Is there a FAQ or URL that might help to 
understand any of this?

Thanks!
