I like this idea the best, but I think revision numbers are conventionally prefixed with a dash; 13.01-24 http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:NamingGu

Yeah, that would be better. In this context a revision is just a bug fix release, the same as a "point release" or "minor release" or "patch version." I'm sure there are terms I'm forgetting. A micro-version increment, where the system is ${major}.${minor}.${micro} (in what the kids call "semantic versioning," but what used to just be called "not versioning like an idiot.")
