See my reply in the thread What basic things should I know about versioning modules? that a 1.23 style versioning should provide maximum compatibility, specified in a format of our $VERSION = "1.23";. Of course, TIMTOWTDI, and you'll see some modules use interesting versioning schemes and some modules use code to determine $VERSION like parsing it out of a VCS $Revision$ string. See the documentation in ExtUtils::MakeMaker's VERSION_FROM and ExtUtils::MM_Unix's parse_version, but note that those are probably not the only tools that parse version strings out of module files, so I'd really only recommend our $VERSION = string;.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
