I've seen this before. It seems to be a new(ish) convention for labelling betas, the idea being that they're counting up towards a 1.14 release. I'm not sure what characteristics distinguish a point release (final component starting with a low digit) from a beta (yada yada high digit) -- or what they do if they need another beta after 1.13.99. I suppose both of those vary per-project. -- | | /\ |-_|/ > Eric Siegerman, Toronto, Ont.
