I quite like this idea. With Rockbox it is quite difficult to quantize what
makes a release, so time based releases provide a manageable system to work
by.
WINE also uses this approach and it seems to work pretty well for them.

For major releases (ie. 3.0, 4.0, etc) we could have more specific
requirements, for example a UI rework or some other quite visible change.

Just my quick 2c...
Cheers, Will.
