> Would you mind to explain me what the specific notion means? See http://httpd.apache.org/dev/release.html for the httpd project's guidelines. They use the term "release" the way that Jakarta projects will use the term "build", but the overall effect is the same. See http://jakarta.apache.org/site/binindex.cgi for a description of the guidelines used by Jakarta and related projects. Basically the terminology maps, except that httpd calls things a release and Jakarta calls them a build. So, roughly speaking, you might look at it as: httpd Jakarta ----- ------- Nightly build (automated, might not compile) alpha release beta release Milestone build GA release Release build That is why I make sure to write Release with a capital 'R' when referring to a Release build. These are just guidelines. For example, the Apache James project hasn't been putting out nightly builds, but we do put out test builds that are not considered milestones. Those would be more like an alpha release in httpd project terms. --- Noel --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
