Basically, version numbering is all about "marketing". By always
increasing major version we tell to the general audience that
major release indeed contains major changes (which is always the
case).
So we solve/improve "marketing" issues.
BTW, in my opinion FPC has similar issues and will benefit from
such approach to versioning too.
That was funny to read :-)
I think the biggest issue in this regard is actually making releases
to begin with.
Yes indeed, but then in case of rare releases it is even more
important to have right version numbering. :)
Changing versioning is an easy and logical move in any case, why not
do it?
That was even more funny to read...
Honestly: I'll settle for actually managing to get a release out.
Yes indeed, this is most important. But I fail to see how these moves
contradict each other.
In any case, this is relevant only for the next major release (so next
major version of FPC will be e.g. 4.0, not 3.4.0 ).
And yes, this is minor issue/move, but still is IMO important (it is
always wise to show to the general audience that the project is alive
and kicking, which is indeed the case for FPC compiler too).
But again, by any means, I do not insist on this. It is just a
suggestion to consider.
