Reply to Version numbers example / #2404

Although this version numbering would be cool, it has some problems:
  1. streber sorts milestones for names (which would not work for versions like "1.10.2" and "1.2.23")
  2. streber compares the versions by string-compare to check for database updates ala, if "0.0234 < 0.0232" then to upgrade
Of cause both arguments are a faults with streber. The second problem could easiy be solved by a compareVersion() function. But the sorting of versions with sql causes me some headache.
