## What version should packages use for libraries without official releases?
The notation shown below is used for publishing packages where the original library does not make official releases. Thus we use a datestamp corresponding to the date of a commit. In order to create reproducible builds, we also "commit-lock" to the latest commit on that day. Otherwise, users would get inconsistent results over time when rebuilding the package. An example of this is the [NanoRange](https://github.com/tcbrindle/NanoRange) library, where its package reference is `nanorange/20191001` and its sources are locked the latest commit on that date: https://github.com/conan-io/conan-center-index/blob/master/recipes/nanorange/all/conandata.yml#L2L3
The notation shown below is used for publishing packages where the original library does not make official releases. Thus, we use a format which includes the datestamp corresponding to the date of a commit: `cci.<YEAR MONTH DAY>`. In order to create reproducible builds, we also "commit-lock" to the latest commit on that day. Otherwise, users would get inconsistent results over time when rebuilding the package. An example of this is the [RapidJSON](https://github.com/Tencent/rapidjson) library, where its package reference is `rapidjson/cci.20200410` and its sources are locked the latest commit on that date in [config.yml](https://github.com/conan-io/conan-center-index/blob/master/recipes/rapidjson/config.yml#L4). The prefix `cci.` is mandatory to distinguish as a virtual version provided by CCI. If you are interested to know about the origin, please, read [here](https://github.com/conan-io/conan-center-index/pull/1464).
