Going from 200902xx to 1.0 (or just about anything else) will cause some
headaches with package updates. In rpm land Epoch would need to be used,
dunno about other package formats but I suppose they have similar mechanisms.
I have no problem with that, it's obviously doable, just thought I'd mention
it in case someone didn't think of it. I wouldn't have any problem with
sticking with date based versions either, but I suppose it would be confusing
in case someone intends to maintain two separate branches (does someone?).
