Here's an example:

linux-next based releases:
  * backports-20130408 -- first release based on next-20130408
  * backports-20130408-2 -- update on the backports code still based
on next-20130408
  * etc

linux-stable releases:

  * backports-v3.10 - based on vanilla Linus-blessed v3.10
  * backports-v3.10-2 - update on the backports code still based on
vanilla v3.10
  * backports-v3.10.1 - based on vanila Greg-bless v3.10.1
  * backports-v3.10.1-2 - update on the backports code still based on
vanilla v3.10.1

Thoughts? I should note I tried to stick to v3.10-1 convention for the
first release but it just totally slipped at times.
