Well, I agree in general that too many components is yucky, but keep
in mind that these _aren't releases_, so assigning them "awkward"
version numbers doesn't really seem all that annoying. These really
aren't part of the historical record. The existing naming scheme for
betas does the same thing (uses "weird" version numbers), but is
problematic because it's not mechanically consistent with "ordinary"
version numbers (and so screws up cases such as packaging software).
I do agree that removing the leading "1." might be a good idea if it's
meaningless in practice. Linux's similar action was good.
