What do you mean by normal? In my life I have seen almost anything,
from those that use names instead of numbers, dates instead of
revision numbers, arbitrary jumps in revision numbers like those by
Acrobat and others...

Current scheme stays below 1.0 because I do not want to make a 1.0
until the compiler is fully stable. Then again, all releases are
binary incompatible among each other, which precludes having three
numbers systems as other linux libraries.

So what would be your suggestion?

Cheers,

Juanjo
