Would Foo2 2.0.0 be acceptable? It seems to cover both aspects of the problem. Foo is the 1.x series, Foo2 is the 2.x series, Foo3 is the 3.x series, and so on.
Well this was what I specified in the original naming group announcement. However this was overthrown by Alan's RFC later on.
Was it...? Which RFC? The VersionNaming RFC upholds this. All pre-stable releases are <1.0.0 but the first stable release of PackageN should be N.0.0 according to the VersionNaming RFC.

Well the RFC is not consistent there. But since it states that you start at 0.0.1 and then process to 1.0.0 for the first stable release it implies that you can never actually get to 2.x.x or higher, since the major version number is supposed to mark a BC breaking release. regards, Lukas
