I would go with 4.2.4 but I've never gotten into deep naming/number
convention wars.  I've always went with kernel number conventions and
it's never done me wrong.  I would let your package maintainers come up
with a sane version scheme that makes their lives easy and doesn't
confuse users.

I've been doing this for a long time, I've seen projects take
questionable moves that have wounded them permanently in some cases.  I
think vtiger is at a critical stage in it's growth and this could have
turned a lot of people off, and still can.  I just hate to see that
happen to a project that works as hard as you guys do to keep everyone
happy.
That said, I didn't mean to shake you up too much but I knew I could get
your attention this way.  Other developers have been speaking up and I
know how hard it can be to get everything done, etc.  Please speak up,
LOUDER next time if you have to and more of us will bite the bullet and
volunteer more time.  And when it comes down to it, if you can't get
anyone to volunteer, you have my cell number, call me and I'll fit it in
to my schedule one way or another.

I just set this up on a test server and it was a snap.  Permissions,
versions, everything, very straight forward.  I'll gladly donate a
hosted server for the project to use permanent or temporarily.
We can host both a forge and a trac system from what I can tell, but
track could also act as a forge I think.  Either way they can ultimately
run off the same SVN server.
