The author of CalVer emailed today, I had no idea their project (or mine) was posted to HN! But yes, they are similar.
I'm biased but I like mine more (and have an npm module to increment automatically).
I've used it in the past for Continuously Deployed web applications. The dates make it easy to determine the age of the release, and it's easy to automate away to a CI job[2].
