I shall say that I was personnally OK with the "0.8.3" duplicate because
I made most of the TSP release from 0.6.5 until now, so I know the
release process well enough to be for a short-path when it looks like
something "reasonable".

And I may say that I am as much concerned as you are (Robert)
with lazy version handling as well as moving CVS tag.
But I found the 0.8.3++ fix fast enough
(i.e. no one really deployed the release)
to tolerate the duplicate.

As soon as our testing procedures improves we should'nt
face such problem any time soon and/or the release process
would be fast enough so that we can afford current-release + 1
at less cost.

I think we (all TSP users and/or developers) should
add our force in pre-release testing.
This is a "hot" subject we may discuss again very soon here :))
