Build numbers.
I've seen many versioning systems use a simple "build number" - a simple number that starts at the bottom and counts up every time it detects a change.
In this case, Minion could provide something similar - an "upload number," which is nothing more than a simple counter that counts up every time the author uploads a new build, and which cannot be changed or modified by the author.
Then, it's simple to check if an upload is more recent or not, and you don't have any time zone translation issues. And you can keep all of the versioning schemes that authors have.
