How many releases do we have per year, i.e. we may as well have enough resolution with those two numbers; currently we don't even use all of them; we can use the character number (c) as bug fix number, and use the current main version number as it is (a*100+b); we should be more generous in jumping numbers (so by now we should have had a.28 and not some 1.22w or so)
If I extrapolate for the last 12 months, - 1.20a would have been 1.20.0 (2004-09-06) - we would probably have a 1.20.1 (2004-10) - 1.20b would have been 1.30.0 (2004-12-22) - 1.21a would have been 1.40.0 (2005-02-04) - we would have done a 1.40.1 and 1.40.2 (and maybe even 1.40.3) - the next release would be 1.50.0
That gives us probably four "proper" releases a year and some bug fixing releases inbetween.
I know that this doesn't look very stable, but we have some developement and we should aim at fixing bugs faster.
well, it may look unstable but at least shows more progress that linux kernel numbers -) When will we go 2.00 ? when open type is present?
