Well...certainly any version scheme is adequate as long as everyone
follows it accordingly which is the main concern in my eyes. Having
said that, why not use the (common) version scheme open source
projects tend to use. A good example (as well as description) can be
found on the Apache APR site (http://apr.apache.org/versioning.html).

Ciao, Andreas
