My understanding is that for 10.0 we will have this define

#define PG_VERSION_NUM 100000

and for 10.1, which is the first maintenance release this will change to

#define PG_VERSION_NUM 100001

effectively allowing many future versions.

Can we confirm/refute these details now to make sure we are all in tune?
