In my personal descending order of preference I would do one of these:
Version: 0

Thanks ..

For the moment I've used:

  Version: 0.1
  Release: 0.1.r11

Ignore the Version number for now - I can change that to just be '0'
later if necessary.

Looks good to me. If version is set to 0, this is the safest choice with regard to avoiding epochs in case upstream changes something afterwards. This is also the numbering that is the most different from upstream, but as long as you are aware of that...
Rubbish.

People will expect:
Requires: xxxx > r11

not
Requires: xxxx > 0.1.r11
