Apologies if this ground has been tread before, but has there been a
version numbering discussion? A quick google didn't seem to turn
anything up.

This seems to be an opportune time to drop the useless first digit.
Explicitly, the major release numbers would be: 1.8, 1.9, then 2.0,
3.0, 4.0, etc, with the 2nd digit would take the meaning of the
current 3rd digit and so on.
