We're at a small dilemma regarding numbering of version numbers of OLPC OS releases.
The current scheme is documented here: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Release_Process_Home#Release_Names It would be nice to stick with it, as this is what deployments are now used to. (However, changing to another scheme is not out of the question) The problem: XO-1.75 software will not be a "joint release" with XO-1/XO-1.5 at the moment, as the current target for Fedora ARM is 12 (stable) and 13 (development). So, the first XO-1.75 software release seems likely to be based on Fedora 12 or 13, for which there is no current base for XO software. There is no determined schedule for this release, yet. (It is our hope that Fedora/ARM will catch up enough so that joint releases are possible in future, but this does not seem imminent.) The next XO-1 and XO-1.5 joint release will be based on Fedora 14 and do have a fixed schedule (to be announced within the next few days). Since it will be released this year, the above URL would suggest that we take version 11.1.x for this new stream. However, that raises the question of what happens if an XO-1.75 release based on F12/F13 comes out later. Would it take the 11.2.x namespace, appearing "newer" than its 11.1.x F14-based cousin? One option we have is to call the new XO-1/XO-1.5 release 11.2.x, leaving 11.1.x free for a possible OLPC XO-1.75 software release based on F12/F13. I think thats the best option we have right now, but might create a bit of confusion as "what happened to 11.1??" Any suggestions/thoughts?
