hmm, miller's versioning scheme has been consistent since (i think at 
least) pd-0.34-0
so i don't see a reason to change branch-names to just another standard 
just because we can. instead i think branch/tag-names of Pd should 
follow the versioning scheme of Pd as closely as possible.

hmm, i don't know why these branches are named like that.
one could argue that the person who created them did so on purpose
(though probably not)
