I agree that having 4 numbers maybe too much. But if we have only 3, 
like Perl, then we have only 2 available for public release (as the last 
numbers are for developpers DB updates)

So, it means we have :
Koha 3.0, 3.1, 3.2..., 3.15, 3.16,... => same functionnal branch, only 
bugfixes & minor changes
Koha 4.0, 4.1,... => next major version

I think this solution is simpler, but it's a big change in our naming 
conventions. So let's argue + and - of this solution.

I think I don't care which one we choose finally.
