Forgive me if I missed it, but I've not seen any suggestions along the lines
of this: how about just dropping the now-meaningless '.6' from the version
string and retaining the rest. In other words:

   2.27
   2.27.1
   ...
   2.28
   2.28.1
   2.28.2

That way you continue the series in a meaningful way, whilst reverting to a
neater 3-level numbering scheme again. Perhaps you could make 2.[6.]30 the
switchover point....

Cheers
AL
