Trimming and tokenization are implementation details and are not guaranteed. What's guaranteed is how version strings compare to each other. If you ask how two specific version strings compare to each other, then the spec should answer your question. If it doesn't, that's a spec bug. -- Elliotte Rusty Harold [email protected]
