Manuel López-Ibáñez <manu at gcc dot gnu.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |manu at gcc dot gnu.org --- Comment #3 from Manuel López-Ibáñez <manu at gcc dot gnu.org> --- To be honest, it is pretty confusing even to me. If 5.0.1 denotes RC1, then why not call it 5.0.1-20150412 ? Then RC2 would be denoted by 5.0.2, and so on. As a general rule, X.0.N, where N > 0 could always be release candidate number N.
