I’m filling in a little myself right now. You’re the only one who filled in
data in the “milestone” columns. You interpreted that as version numbers.
I think it makes more sense to name the colums “VersionNumber#” to correspond
with the “VersionDate#.” So I did this, and moved each next to the respective
version.
I also highlighted the Original Release Date, Current Ver. Release Date, and
Current Version Number columns as I believe they are the most important for
visualizing this information.

OK. I rearranged mine to make 0.1 the “Original Release”. I pushed other
versions over and replaced 0.1 in the Misc column with 3.1. Also, I didn’t like
the spreadsheet stripping of the .0, so I added a v prefix to all my version
numbers so they’d be treated as strings. If you know how to force them to be
strings without a prefix, feel free to make that change.
I would suggest swapping all the version/date columns so that the version column
precedes the date column. I think that would make the spreadsheet more
readable. I would do it, but since you setup the spreadsheet, I’m not going to
make that change, since it’s an opinion.
