4 or more sections will cover almost all the versioning schemas
I'm all for something standard but I think what we have, RPM spec
versioning, and OSGi are unlikely to converge anytime soon. We need
support many schemes, so as long as ours can evolve which is must as
its fragile ATM.

projects shouldn't care and will end benefiting from standardization
as they did with folder names. We need to look to other versioning
standards out there (eg. OSGi) instead of inventing a new one.
if a non maven project is 1.0-alpha1 we'd simply use 1/0/alpha/1 and
we can sort the sections
Which part do you disagree with?
