Not that I am really interested in this, but for your information: CMS and TSO Rexx traditionally has had a decimal version number: 3.40, 3.48. 4.02. This is without reason: its inventor is more involved with decimal arithmetic than the man in the street. There was a semi-heated discussion in the NetRexx architecture board some years ago where Mike Cowlishaw did not budge. Out of respect for him I kept the NetRexx numbering like this; NetRexx 3.09 will be released very soon.
The argument is that decimal version numbers can be easily compared. IBM never changed this for mainframe Rexx. best regards, René. > On 15 Mar 2020, at 13:19, Rony G.
