Hello,

I am packaging some software and would like testers to try out my
packages. What is the best way to choose version numbers for the package
under development so that:
(1) Testers can use "apt-get upgrade" to download the next test versions
from my private repository as I make them available.
(2) Once the real version is uploaded to Debian, it will have version
number greater than all the test packages.

Thanks,

Marcus
