The behavior with two minor versions under one J release referred to below is described under "Stability Levels" and "Installation Conventions" in http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/Addons/Versioning
The way manifest is done right now is correct and should be changed (or it may cause further complications). So it is recommended to use the "direct" method. The described delivery mechanism (addons.txt catalog) and multi-version choice in Package Manager are not implemented yet. We will try to take care about it as soon as possible. --- bill lam <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Thanks, I'll comment out the entire RELEASE line. ie. > NB.
