    But this is only because you are maintaining a source code that is several
    years old, right? Would maintaining a series numbered 2002.x.y make your
    situation a lot better? Do you think you'd never make typo '2002 instead
    of 2006' any more?

    Or how would you distingiush the kernel tree you are maintaing from the
    one Linus is maintaining?
