Hi,

I did not pay sufficient attention to version numbering till now, and
I have a newly submitted package with version 1.0.3 in the devel
branch.
I just realized that this is not really correct. Also, I'm updating it
and I have to decide the new version number.
I wonder if and how I could fix this number at this point.

On one hand I should have had something like 0.99.3 at this point, but
it does not sound good to me to go from 1.0.3 to 0.99.4 ...

On the other hand I could go to from 1.0.3 to 1.1.0 (that is going to
be 1.2.0 in the release) but still I'm not sure a newly release
package can appear with 1.2.0 in the release branch ..

Thanks for any suggestion,

mattia
