This is what I get using a spreadsheet :

09/10/15 5761
30/12/99 0

The date in column 1 is calculated by displaying the number in column 2 in date format. Day Zero is thus 30/12/1999.

My assumption is that the release number is generated when work on the release starts.

Sorry if someone else has already come up with this explanation.

So ... what you are saying is that Kobo has been working on this particular release for just under 16 years?
