    Yeah. I think I have a preference for a three tier system that’s Y.R.P (e.g. 25.0.2; “Year”, Release within year, Patch number), so yes, I could imagine the third level being incremented the following year in an emergency.

    And if two-tier is paramount, tricks like (R+1)*100+P will work provided there aren’t going to be 100 patches per release. (e.g. 25.102)
