You've no idea how familiar that sounds...

If I were an American, I think I'd now mumble something about the Fifth
Amendment ;-)

With smaller scripts I don't bother keeping versions unless I decide to make
major changes. Otherwise I just increment version numbers. If I'm getting
people to test, I'll call it a beta, and usually time-bomb it to avoid
potential problems.

But really, I'm the worst person to ask. Maybe others will chime in here...
