Hi there,

you may have noticed, nagios-plugins released a new version, which has
a tag of a new major release (2.0). This looks like they are trying to
start a version number competition.

I`m proposing a new version scheme which could look like:

<year>.<month>[.bugfixrelease]

If you think this looks very familiar ... yes it`s used by ubuntu and
may others.

What maybe the benefits of a complete different release scheme:

* there will probably no version number races between existing forks
  (which is totally nonsense)
* we can better identify, if a plugin is from our fork or no
 - this might help when we get bugreports/complaints, especially when
   forks are more diversing on code base

Just my 2 euro cents.

Have a nice day, Jan.
