FreeCol's version scheme is already pretty idiosyncratic given the semantics of the leading zero. Nevertheless, while it is fair to describe FreeCol releases to date as beta releases, I would not want to use that as an excuse for causing unnecessary trouble for our users. > > My view on the matter is that the jump from 0.10.3 to now is so big that it > "deserves" a minor point bump on that alone. I think you have just made my point for me. The changes since 0.11.3 are slight in comparison with what went into 0.10.7->0.11.0. Its been a mere 3 months or so since 0.11.3. We were stuck on 0.10.7 for a year and a half! (with more developer activity IIRC). 0.9.5 -> 0.10.0 was about 8 months although that included some alphas. >>[Java 6 features] > Not to my knowledge, I was just stating a general principal that we > shouldn't let some out-dated feature from < 1.6 hold up the project. I am unaware of any such cases. Cheers, Mike Pope
