Stick with the x.y.0 is my vote, but my vote is tempered by this uncertainty: usually, when a team declares a “release” there’s a feature freeze, then testing with only bug fixes, etc. in other words, a release is different than a patch. But, is that the case with vim? Or is the “release” just a decision one day to increment the version number of a continual patch stream, and reset the patch number to 0?
