[wp-hackers] Plugin Version Increments

[Glenn Ansley]

Is there any industry or WordPress preferred method for version number
increments?
I've never released code to the public before that had the potential of
future revisions. What determines if a script goes from 1.0 to 1.1 or 1.1.1
or 2.0? Also, what determines if the initial script is released < 1.0?

If there is no "standard", why do you do it like you do?

Thanks,
Glenn Ansley
