It doesn't really matter to me or to any of the Debian based distros, but I seem to remember the version number being a problem to the RPM based distros in the past, so I'd rather not change the format unless we first make sure it's going to work with everyone's packaging. (And if we do change format, I'd only start doing it with alpha2 to avoid some extra confusion) -- Stéphane Graber Ubuntu developer http://www.ubuntu.com
