DevRef's information on version numbers could do with some work in general. It's spread out around various places and often isn't inline with practice, or even self-consistent - it variously suggests the +debNuX scheme for NMUs for stable / testing, where it hasn't previously been used, +codenameX for stable-sec and codenameX for t-p-u; the aim is to unify all of those in to a standard form. In general one isn't concerned whether an upload to stable or t-p-u was a maintainer upload or not; the purpose of the version number is largely to indicate that the upload was made to a suite other than unstable / experimental.
