Why not do it in the format Windows seems to do: ReactOS 0.3.0-SVN (Build 20051010: Revision 14000). Or maybe with spaces for easier reading (Build 2005 10 10: Revision 14 000)?
The biggest obstacle I see is actually getting the SVN revision number in our source somewhere. Maybe our local SVN guru, aka Casper, has an idea how to do this?
The TortiseSVN folk have a little utility:
"SubWCRev.exe: a small command line tool which you can use in your build steps. It takes a file as an argument and replaces all "$WCREV$" strings with the revision of your working copy. This is useful if you want to include the Subversion revision in the version of your project. If you need an example, check out the TortoiseSVN source and/or have a look at the small help file."
