Felix, I'm not necessarily an Ivy "power user", but that scheme definitely looks reasonable to me; it's actually quite similar to the one I'm using on my project. AFAIK, the only customizing you would need to do for this scheme is to set up a custom latest-revision in your latest-strategies with specialMeaning elements for "M" and "I", for instance assigning "M" a value of -2 and "I" a value of -3. See the "latest-strategies" page of the docs (http://ant.apache.org/ivy/history/latest-milestone/settings/latest-strategies.html) for more details on setting up custom latest-strategies.

I'd like to use different revision schemes based on the status of a module. For example: Status 'release' => just version number, e.g 1.0 Status 'milestone' => version number + 'M' + milestone number, e.g. 1.0-M1 Status 'integration' => version number + 'I' + build date, e.g. 1.0-I200910262000 Does such a scheme look reasonable, or even dangerous? Thanks for any comment, Felix
