+\r
+I also like this suggestion best of all seen so far, but what if:\r
+\r
+  #define NOTMUCH_MAJOR_VERSION        0\r
+  #define NOTMUCH_MINOR_VERSION        17\r
+ -#define NOTMUCH_MICRO_VERSION        0\r
+ +#define NOTMUCH_MICRO_VERSION        90\r
+\r
+until changed API/ABI is set into stone (i.e. 0.18.0 at freeze time).\r
