</div>Sounds reasonable, I'll try something in the prototype, and submit it here<br>
<div class="im"></div></blockquote><div><br>I don't want to whack a dead horse, but when Philip brought up the "dev release of a post release" I asked for a concrete real-world example. I didn't get a response to that email. Do other people see a need for this? My understanding from the PyCon discussions was that the "postNNN" marker was the equivalent of the "devNNN" marker, but for projects that don't immediately increment the leading version numbers after a release.<br>
<br>Can people point to some examples of projects using post-release tags, and that would require the use of a "dev release of a post release"? If there are real examples, those would also help in explaining the motivation for this in the versioning scheme in the PEP.<br>
