New versionning:
++++++++++++++++

With this release, the versionning of Gunicorn is changing. Gunicorn is
stable since a long time and there is no point to release a "1.0" now.
It should have been done since a long time. 0.17 really meant it was the
17th stable version. From the beginning we have only 2 kind of
releases:

major release: releases with major changes or huge features added
services releases: fixes and minor features added So from now we will
apply the following versionning ``<major>.<service>``. For example ``17.5`` is a
service release.
