We had it a while ago. It makes perfect sense to me to keep track of what is fixed between beta and rc versions. When we roll the final 5.4.0 release NEWS will contain just the differences between 5.3 and 5.4. When someone upgrades from beta-1 to beta-2 they would expect the NEWS file to contain a complete list of stuff that is new in this beta release. Same goes for any release. 5.3.x to 5.3.x+1 and 5.4.x and 5.4.x+1. The x+1 NEWS file should always contain the changes from x no matter where else that fix might appear. The only thing we do, which is probably what is confusing you, is that we reset at major release time. We expect people to come from 5.3.x to 5.4.0 so the NEWS file should reflect that. -Rasmus -- PHP CVS Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
