Even if we do not change the versioning scheme, we have to clearly
document how it works - and what the algorithm is for changing the
numbers. Currently this is black art ;)

Nono, it's only WHEN the numbers change that appears to be mostly
arbitrary - the algoritms are straight forward:

nextminor=prevminor+1
nextmajor=prevmajor+1
