I've been using a changes line like
Version 6, June 2009
and similar can be found in a few dists, eg. Carp::Clan
Version 6.00 17.02.2008
Each is at the start of a line, which might be important for avoiding
something discussing an unrelated "version 123" in the ordinary text
part of an entry.
Could this rate as "not horrid" to incorporate perhaps per below?
