Erk :( ! But I guess we don't have much choice as we used up M and
RC for the alpha sorting already. Do we really have to have the
date appended? Can't we have just 7.0.0.v1 ? The file names get
really long and very tedious to type, and I don't really see that
it adds any useful information over and above a simple counter. 

But, if that is eclipse standard practise (?) then we should 
follow suit.
