</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Likely because none of them know the specific meaning of using 0.
</I>&gt;<i>  From where is this specific meaning coming? Where is it documented?
</I>
Where does it come, I do not know, likely due to the structure of rpm
( debian use some tricks with ~ in version for that ).

The first example I can think of date back to 2002-4, in mandrake rpm
howto, that you can find ( in a updated version ) on : 
<A HREF="http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Development/Howto/RPM_Advanced#Releasing_pre-versions">http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Development/Howto/RPM_Advanced#Releasing_pre-versions</A>

Fedora also adopted the same convention :
<A HREF="http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/NamingGuidelines#Pre-Release_packages">http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/NamingGuidelines#Pre-Release_packages</A>

And i was unable to find anything on opensuse wiki for that.
