It makes sense to "increment by two" for each net release.  This means
that if someone downloads a snapshot (which will be something like
1.1.2, 1.1.4, etc.) they'll be able to upload to 1.1.3, 1.1.5, etc.

The only slight inconsistency in this plan is that it is the opposite of
the "stable releases are even, beta net releases are odd".  Since it's
likely that few people besides DJ and I are aware of this even/odd
relationship, I'm wondering if this is a big deal.

If so, I guess the next net release will be 1.1.4.
