i guess this will cause serious headake because people tend to think like this: 3.0.x is less mature/was released before 3.1.x is less mature/was released before 3.12.x is less mature/was released before 3.13.x i guess there should be a deliberate versioning scheme. examples are: - versioning similar to the linux kernel - release 3.12.x as 3.12.x-stable and continue development without this tag. - something else but i guess its no good to jump from 3.12.x back to 3.0.x and from a future revision such as 3.40.x back to 3.1.x cheers, raoul -- ____________________________________________________________________ DI (FH) Raoul Bhatia M.Sc. email.
