+# The Version class processes string versions into comparable
+# values. A version string should normally be a series of numbers
+# separated by periods. Each part (digits separated by periods) is
+# considered its own number, and these are used for sorting. So for
+# instance, 3.10 sorts higher than 3.2 because ten is greater than
+# two.
+#
+# If any part contains letters (currently only a-z are supported) then
+# that version is considered prerelease. Versions with a prerelease
+# part in the Nth part sort less than versions with N-1
+# parts. Prerelease parts are sorted alphabetically using the normal
+# Ruby string sorting rules. If a prerelease part contains both
+# letters and numbers, it will be broken into multiple parts to
+# provide expected sort behavior (1.0.a10 becomes 1.0.a.10, and is
+# greater than 1.0.a9).
+#
+# Prereleases sort between real releases (newest to oldest):
+#
+# 1. 1.0
+# 2. 1.0.b1
+# 3. 1.0.a.2
+# 4. 0.9
+#
+# == How Software Changes
+#
+# Users expect to be able to specify a version constraint that gives them
+# some reasonable expectation that new versions of a library will work with
+# their software if the version constraint is true, and not work with their
+# software if the version constraint is false. In other words, the perfect
+# system will accept all compatible versions of the library and reject all
+# incompatible versions.
+#
+# Libraries change in 3 ways (well, more than 3, but stay focused here!).
+#
+# 1. The change may be an implementation detail only and have no effect on
+# the client software.
+# 2. The change may add new features, but do so in a way that client software
+# written to an earlier version is still compatible.
+# 3. The change may change the public interface of the library in such a way
+# that old software is no longer compatible.
+#
+# Some examples are appropriate at this point. Suppose I have a Stack class
+# that supports a <tt>push</tt> and a <tt>pop</tt> method.
+#
+# === Examples of Category 1 changes:
+#
+# * Switch from an array based implementation to a linked-list based
+# implementation.
+# * Provide an automatic (and transparent) backing store for large stacks.
+#
+# === Examples of Category 2 changes might be:
+#
+# * Add a <tt>depth</tt> method to return the current depth of the stack.
+# * Add a <tt>top</tt> method that returns the current top of stack (without
+# changing the stack).
+# * Change <tt>push</tt> so that it returns the item pushed (previously it
+# had no usable return value).
+#
+# === Examples of Category 3 changes might be:
+#
+# * Changes <tt>pop</tt> so that it no longer returns a value (you must use
+# <tt>top</tt> to get the top of the stack).
+# * Rename the methods to <tt>push_item</tt> and <tt>pop_item</tt>.
+#
+# == RubyGems Rational Versioning
+#
+# * Versions shall be represented by three non-negative integers, separated
+# by periods (e.g. 3.1.4). The first integers is the "major" version
+# number, the second integer is the "minor" version number, and the third
+# integer is the "build" number.
+#
+# * A category 1 change (implementation detail) will increment the build
+# number.
+#
+# * A category 2 change (backwards compatible) will increment the minor
+# version number and reset the build number.
+#
+# * A category 3 change (incompatible) will increment the major build number
+# and reset the minor and build numbers.
+#
+# * Any "public" release of a gem should have a different version. Normally
+# that means incrementing the build number. This means a developer can
+# generate builds all day long for himself, but as soon as he/she makes a
+# public release, the version must be updated.
+#
+# === Examples
+#
+# Let's work through a project lifecycle using our Stack example from above.
+#
+# Version 0.0.1:: The initial Stack class is release.
+# Version 0.0.2:: Switched to a linked=list implementation because it is
+# cooler.
+# Version 0.1.0:: Added a <tt>depth</tt> method.
+# Version 1.0.0:: Added <tt>top</tt> and made <tt>pop</tt> return nil
+# (<tt>pop</tt> used to return the old top item).
+# Version 1.1.0:: <tt>push</tt> now returns the value pushed (it used it
+# return nil).
+# Version 1.1.1:: Fixed a bug in the linked list implementation.
+# Version 1.1.2:: Fixed a bug introduced in the last fix.
+#
+# Client A needs a stack with basic push/pop capability. He writes to the
+# original interface (no <tt>top</tt>), so his version constraint looks
+# like:
+#
+# gem 'stack', '~> 0.0'
+#
+# Essentially, any version is OK with Client A. An incompatible change to
+# the library will cause him grief, but he is willing to take the chance (we
+# call Client A optimistic).
+#
+# Client B is just like Client A except for two things: (1) He uses the
+# <tt>depth</tt> method and (2) he is worried about future
+# incompatibilities, so he writes his version constraint like this:
+#
+# gem 'stack', '~> 0.1'
+#
+# The <tt>depth</tt> method was introduced in version 0.1.0, so that version
+# or anything later is fine, as long as the version stays below version 1.0
+# where incompatibilities are introduced. We call Client B pessimistic
+# because he is worried about incompatible future changes (it is OK to be
+# pessimistic!).
+#
+# == Preventing Version Catastrophe:
+#
+# From: http://blog.zenspider.com/2008/10/rubygems-howto-preventing-cata.html
+#
+# Let's say you're depending on the fnord gem version 2.y.z. If you
+# specify your dependency as ">= 2.0.0" then, you're good, right? What
+# happens if fnord 3.0 comes out and it isn't backwards compatible
+# with 2.y.z? Your stuff will break as a result of using ">=". The
+# better route is to specify your dependency with a "spermy" version
+# specifier. They're a tad confusing, so here is how the dependency
+# specifiers work:
+#
+# Specification From ... To (exclusive)
+# ">= 3.0" 3.0 ... &infin;
+# "~> 3.0" 3.0 ... 4.0
+# "~> 3.0.0" 3.0.0 ... 3.1
+# "~> 3.5" 3.5 ... 4.0
+# "~> 3.5.0" 3.5.0 ... 3.6
