Unless I misunderstood we now use the github date string versioning (my latest vm from this afternoon is 5.0-201608171728 for example).

No, it’s the r3732 type numbering that concerns me. When one builds a new vm it will be, for example, 5.0-201608171728 with the date/time making the version data and an svn release number. Because we’re not using svn anymore...
