: Another is Version.Update, including bugfixes in updates. Bugfixes increment

This is the kind of system that I prefer, mostly because it's a common sense system. The problem, of course, occurs when you have more than 9 significant updates in one architectural model. I mean, 1.100 doesn't make any sense.

Because most people are stupid.
