Yeah, that would make specifying dependencies a bit of a drag. I think I'll just rerelease all the packages as version 3000.0.0 or something. Who cares if the version numbers look silly?
The Debian Project uses standardized version numbers, and has a special field "epoch" which is incremented whenever the version numbers change; so for instance 2:1.0 comes *after* 20060413. perhaps this could be adapted in the context of cabal?
