My way to read that is that the integer increment happens
for subsequent not backward compatible REC versions,
not during the revision process WD->PR->REC.
During the revision process only the date changes, not the version.
That is, if a REC exists with version N.m, and a new version of that
standard
is being discussed, which will bring to an accepted new Exec version
incompatible
with version N, then such new WD must be numbered (N+1).0 -- otherwise
N.(m+1) will suffice.
The WD will then become PR without the need to change version number,
but just only the date.
Wrong?
