+<PRE>
+In my opinion, Mageia distro's version can set as 2011.0 (2011 Spring) and 2011.1 (2011 Autumn). The secondary version &quot;0&quot; is released in every spring, and the &quot;1&quot; is released in every autumn.
+
+
+I also wish that, the series of Magiea includes:
+
+
+Mageia One (as Mandriva One): official GNOME and KDE.
+
+
+Mageia Free (as Mandriva Free): official GNOME and KDE, all softwares are free softwares.
+
+
+And, I hope that the present Mandriva Linux system (One and Free) can be upgraded to Mageia (One and Free) without re-installation of a new system.
+
+
+Best regards,
+Jiang Yike

+20xx.0 -&gt; 20xx.1 is perfect. Tho' 20xx.0 should be released at spring time and 20xx.1 later
+the same year. At the moment it doesn't make sense and many friends have asked why is 20xy
+released in 20x(y-1).
+
+
+Exactly. Mandriva version numbering sounds like we are selling cars. (You know, all image and no substance.)
+So let's go for Mageia 2010.1 if we can do it this fall. (Hopefully)
+And Mageia 2011.0 in the spring.
+Note that we will have to recompile to change Mandriva to Mageia, so changing the version number should cause no problem.
+
+
+How about instead of using 0 or 1, use the month number instead? So, .3
+for a release made in March. That way we are always &quot;up to date&quot; and can
+allow for release schedules slipping or having a 3rd release within a year
+if needed / fitting.
+
+
+Such versioning is bad. It forces you into time limit like it is with Ubuntu. And i don't
+like it. When the release needs to be delayed it's better to do so. Not to push it out and
+then land loads of fixes on it like has happened to Ubuntu. Also you don't have to remember
+which month it was released in year 2008. Was it 2008.3 or 2008.5?
+
+
+It is a lot simpler to use 0 or 1.
+If the month is used, and there is a delay for some reason, would you want to have to change the names of 100's of files ?
+Including the dependancies in the RPM's ?
+Otherwise, the month would have no more meaning than 0 or 1.
+
+And why would you want 3 releases in a year ? With the pace of changes in Linux, 2 seems just right. If there are any important updates, for security, for instance, that is already built into the Mandriva system we are inheriting (like virtually all others).

+Why not make them read the version info from one place? (on a long term...)
