In September 2011, Jeff Garzik and Luke-Jr discussed the version number for the next stable release of Bitcoin. Luke-Jr initially bumped the version to 0.4.1, but Jeff Garzik pointed out that the most recent release was actually 0.4.0. Jeff Garzik suggested that any stable version based off it should be 0.4.0.1. It was also mentioned that Gavin had previously stated that the next version after 0.4.0 would be 0.5, making the commit to bump the version to 0.4.1 unexpected. Jeff Garzik aimed to clarify the version number for the stable release while ensuring compliance with the "upstream must have merged this fix first" rule.On September 26, 2011, Luke-Jr changed the version to 0.4.1 for a pre-0.5.0 release. However, Jeff Garzik corrected this by stating that the most recent release was actually 0.4.0. Therefore, the stable version would be based on the most recent release, which would be 0.4.0.1.
