Hi Jason,

thanks for the writeup.  Versioning is always a bit of a bikeshedding
exercise, but I'd still vote for following the kernel versioning (while
fully agreeing with your thiughts on shared library versioning).

Two reasons for that:

 - it's a good marker of what version of the userspace code you need
   to take advtantage of new kernel features
 - it allows for much smoother minor updates.  I hope this will be
   rare, but my experience from various projects tells me that they
   will occasionally be needed.
