Well, since we have a 0.X.<snapshot> scheme, and X is always increasing, does
it really matter if a date is in there, or that the numbers past X even
increment the right way?
0.1.1234svn
0.2.1233svn
0.3.1334svn
Wouldn't those work?
imo, yes. As you(Jessie) pointed out, as long as the X in 0.X
increments, I don't really care what comes after it (within reason and
sanity, of course).
Unless there's some other reason for insisting on including the date,
but I can't think of one atm.
