It is, IMO, essential to give every release its own identifier, so that when a bug is reported you can say "that was fixed in 4.0.2" rather than "that was fixed in last thursdays release". However many fields you have in your version number, the last must change for every individual release, be it alpha, beta or full. Release numbers don't cost money, so we can be prodigal with them if it aids clarity.

Re: MySQL 4.0 updated?
Hi, I think MySQL 4.0.0 is in it's alpha state. Wouldn't it be more right to get a 4.0.0 beta and several release candidates than a 4.0.1 version?

Re: MySQL 4.0 updated?
When a new version is available it will have a new version number. The current version is 4.0.0 but there will almost certainly be a 4.0.1 soon. If you look at the change history in the documentation, there have already been changes put into 4.0.0. If you need quicker access to changes, you can download the source code from the bitkeeper tree which changes more frequently.

MySQL 4.0 updated?
Hi, Is MySQL 4.0 Alpha updated periodically with bugfixes? i.e. Is it worth periodically re-downloading and re-installing MySQL 4.0 to ensure I have the most stable version? tnx, ~Mark. - Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
