Hello list,
Irecently started educating myself to the wonders of Ardour. Then today
I became aware of the 'What's new' section on Ardour's website
(http://ardour.org/whatsnew.html). This section strongly encourages
linux distros to upgrade to Ardour 3.5.403 and even states that it's
irresponsible not to.
My system, Ubuntu Studio 14.04, is still running Ardour 3.5.308~dfsg-1.
I'm familiar with Ubuntu's policy of choosing the latest (or stablest)
version of a program at the time of release and then sticking with that
until the next ubuntu release.
Now my questions are:
1. I guess I should become a subscriber to get the latest and greatest
version. How does that work in practice - I subscribe and then get
access to a 'secret' PPA?
2. Can someone explain to me the deeper meaning of version numbers?
I mean, does the difference in version numbers (3.5.403 vs 3.5.308)
really mean that the Ardour team released almost a hundred updates not
incorporated into Ubuntu Studio 14.04?
Best wishes,
Alf
