Pretty disappointed...

a versioning consistency standard misses a major issue -- it doesn't address the addons that are already present here at wowinterface. who's gonna go back and change all the version numbers of all the addons here?

if you expect that the original authors will stop by to do this, then why wouldn't they simply update the addons to be the latest version? if you expect the managers of the site to do it, again why not just assume they'd also feel free to copy the latest version from curse or where-ever.
