> Would having a new attribute be a better approach? Either that or a note in the docs to mention iPadOS 26 and future versions. From an API standpoint, yes it definitely would be a better approach to have a marketing version field. But from a maintainer perspective I'm not so sure if Apache should be responsible for providing the marketing name. If we assume Apple will release a version every year, then determining the name is as simple as `version + 7`... but that might be an unsafe assumption to make, even if that's been Apple's pattern for probably as long as I've been doing mobile development. For other platforms, localization might also be required, e.g. Android had the names: Nougat, oreo, etc, though I think Android have stopped using names and now has version numbers nowadays. So I think it's better for the plugin to provide the logical OS as it does, and defer to the application to determine the marketing name tailored to their specific needs/supported languages, etc. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
