Can't we use theIt doesn't work that way. Software versioning is not decimal. Milestone versions have full numbers like 1.0... You can have a lot of versions between demo release (0.1) and first milestone version 1.0 or bewteen two milestone versions (1.0 and 2.0)... 0.04 doesn't really exist. You can have for example 0.16.4 which would mean 4th bugfix release of 0.16. There is no new content just various fixes.

?Versioning is not defined from a standards body (e.g. ISO). Where I work, it is usally vv.xx and we usally beginning with 00.10.
I don't find it this the best solution and I think Z.Y.X would be more rational.
But the for most case use one - and only one - system and define what which part of the number stands for what (and never change a running system, only if you have to).
