[Tutor] Revision codes

[kirk Bailey]

Defining revision codes, how when and whyfore.

version #.#.#
major/significant/minor, hugher numbers being newer than smaller ones.

Start with 1.0.0;

So if we do a minor tidying up, maybe a slight cosmetic update, we
call this 1.0.1;

Find a bug and fix it, this is 1.1.0;

later make another cosmetic change, it is 1.1.1;

And when we issue a serious upgrade, rewriting significant portions,
adding new misfeatures, we then referr to this disaster as 2.0.0, yes?

My, that was a long sentance; Uncle Phil Chanchuli would be SO
distressed. (my english teacher, don't blaime him.)
