Comment (by malcolm.wallace at cs.york.ac.uk):

 The discussion back in October 2007 was short - it begins here:
     http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/libraries/2007-October/008472.html

 There were no strong opinions in either direction.  Some people thought we
 should consider negative components of the version sequence, but that is
 totally crazy.  If only Haskell had true Naturals!
