Other argument that I forgot to mention is: this is an extension of first version so nobody needs change his package naming and is an extension in two ways : 1 - Possibility of begin with 0 , before was need be: 0.%{X} 2 - Possibility of write in right . The current: 0.%{X}.%{alphatag}%{?dist} Extension 1: 0[.%{X}].%{alphatag}%{?dist} Extension 2: 0[.%{X}].%{alphatag}[.%{Y}]%{?dist} I'd like to have permission to use in some of "my" packages. > Regards, > Dominik -- Sérgio M.
