One possible problem with using the additional minor number (5.11.1
instead of 5.11) is that `gnus-continuum-version' of 5.11.1 is greater
than that of all No Gnus versions:
ELISP> (gnus-continuum-version "No Gnus v0.3")
5.110003
ELISP> (gnus-continuum-version "Gnus v5.11.1")
5.1101
ELISP> (gnus-continuum-version "Gnus v5.11")
5.11
I don't know how problematic this would be, but I would think that all
No Gnus versions should be higher than the 5.11* versions. A simple
(but ugly?) solution would be to change the set the version to
5.11MMNN for "No Gnus v0.NN" with MM in (01...99).
With MM=90: "No Gnus v0.3" ==> 5.119003
"No Gnus v0.12" ==> 5.119012
With MM=99: "No Gnus v0.3" ==> 5.119903
"No Gnus v0.12" ==> 5.119912
Might be a little confusion for the user, but I don't think that users
are supposed to look at the continuum version at all.
Other suggestions?
Bye, Reiner.
