I agree that we need to look at the source code to 100% understand that
status of a driver. However, if VMware has a practice of bumping the
version number for our contributions to help with some of our internal
processes, then I don¹t see any harm in allowing this practice to
continue. We are not asking you personally to interpret these version
numbers in any way. So it should be of little consequence to you to just
accept them as part of our contributions in the future.

Thanks,
John
