> I suggest calling it 2.0.2 to maximize probability all distros consider it a bug fix release and pull it in. BuildStream is not usable without this as was known before 2.0.0. This is not a patch release as it adds a feature/API. > This was somewhat erroneously not flagged as blocking 2.0.0. I don't believe this was an error, it's inconvenient but recoverable either by zapping the cache, or by running `bst artifact delete` and running the build again while disabling remote cache access (doable on the CLI by specifying an invalid artifact remote). > If you intend this change to go in as unstable release, bear in mind downstreams are going to ignore your versioning. I don't think this feature addition warrants an unstable cycle, it's not a very complicated or experimental change. We intend to release this as a stable feature release: 2.1.0 As I cited in https://lists.apache.org/thread/yxl6438r3wq2655v1ot8z909t01ccr6k, we just want to fix some mechanics to allow us to break free of the non-standard _"odd number minor point means unstable"_ convention which we originally inherited from the GNOME project (and is not really a semantic used anywhere else, and is generally confusing except to GNOME developers). -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
