Trivia

 * Notch planned to refactor the version naming system after this version, removing the second zero and the "a", becoming the format ".[_]". As an example, since this was the most recent version at the time, "0.0.23a_01" would be called "0.23_01" with such a system. However, this version was never actually given this name outside of this example.
 * This format was also used somewhat in Beta.
