Cliff, We're not in the advertising business. We're doing long term science. It makes no difference if there are "major" improvements from version 10.1 to 10.2. Every version features improvements. Linus Torvolds commented that he is constantly asked when "version 3.0" of linux will be released.

I'd prefer the binary numbering scheme to reflect the date of the gold version, so the Gold Sept 2007 version would be axiom-7.9.0.tgz (that is, Sept, 2007 == 7.9). This will be unique and clear. We need to put up binary distros on the axiom websites (axiom-developer, sourceforge, savannah). Th
