How do you define version number of skins?
#1
Question 
Hi, I know this might be a silly question, but I'm curious about how you define this. If you call your skin version 1.0.4, what does the 4 mean? I guess that 1.0 means the very first version?

I will use for my soon coming skin, but don't want to give it a random version name, if there is a certain why on doing this.


Cheers!

How I do it -

A.B.C

A - Major update/release
B - Minor update/release
C - Bug/Small fixes

it's a major.minor.revision versioning scheme.

you bump the major number when you make large changes, that could break backwards compatibility.
so for instance, use 1.x.x for dharma and 2.x.x for eden.

increase the minor version for small additions and the revision number for bugfixes.

it's up to you whether to start at 0.0.1 or 1.0.0

Just a note that the key is to stick with *.*.* layout. Otherwise you get issues with 2.0 vs 2.0.0 - which one is bigger? To keep things simple, XBMC enforces a *.*.* layout for our repo.
