Hi,

the easiest would be, if you get the version changed in the sources, so that 
when you open the help -> about gideon dialog,
it says not only "gideon 3.0.0a4" but something like 
3.0.0posta4-cvs-2003-06-20 . it is your decision, how you want to name it 
exactly, but the important part is, that the date is in there. this way 
everybody, be it user or developer, can easily check which version he is 
running.


btw: i think gideon is already stable enough to call it beta, so a beta1 would 
fit.
