I see.  In that case v22.1 is a reasonable version number to use.

I mentioned this because often projects write great extra features but
their users only find out years/months later when they upgrade to
another new version.  This is because the authors have only incremented
the version number by a small amount the first time, so users don't
notice.  That doesn't sound like what's happening here though.
