This package just numbers their tarballs using the subversion release
number. For example, 'r8' and 'r11':

As far as I'm aware they are not planning on using "real" version
numbers at any time in the future, nor have they used real version
numbers in the past.
I don't understand which if any of these guidelines apply to this
case:

In particular, what should the Version be? (And while we're at it,
what should the Release be?)
