Just an opinion, you decide...
In the day, V.R.U is a well established means of
producing software
Version 2 Suggests Version 1 will be incompatible
Release 0 Suggests earlier releases may be incompatible
Update 6 Suggests this update fixes earlier updates,
but will run with other updates at the same Version/Release,
modulo some discomfort.
Seems to me that the update number changes
whenever patches are accepted in to the source base,
and the author commits them to public distribution.
This solves packaging number problems, I think ?
