I think this makes sense also.
The problem with using the changeset numbers is that they don't
alway apply to specific version.
There is another model which I did not like at first but have grown
quite comfortable with is the CodeWarrior model where, say, version
5.3 consists of v4.1.2 of the IDE, v1.6.8 of the compiler, v.3.1.0 of the
debugger
etc.
For Squeak and related parts (Whisker, STP, Siren, etc.) a version could
then refer to a package of parts each with their own versions.
