My memory is incorrect. Sorry.

I do think that a version number should uniquely identify a version, though.
A possibility that was not considered last time this was discussed is to
start the reviewing at -0.1, going -0.2, -0.3, etc., and then bump to -1 on
release.

Feel free to ignore me if you don't want to reopen this discussion.
