Yes. In brief the versioning scheme introduced with 1.0.0 is: Changes to last letter: security and bugfix only, no new features. E.g. 1.0.0->1.0.0a Changes to last number: new ABI compatible features. E.g. 1.0.0->1.0.1 Changes to middle number: major release, ABI compatibility not guaranteed. E.g. 1.0.0->1.1.0 This is the first "feature release" that has been done since he versioning scheme changed so there may be some issues to iron out... Steve. -- Dr Stephen N. Henson.
