I've never understood the .X distinction anyway. What signal is meant by 3.1 versus 4.0? Does your intended audience have any concept of the distinction? Why is sarge 3.1 and not 4.0? No good reason that makes any sense to me. It's a distinction completely without value since its too subtle for non-intimates to grasp and if you are very into debian, you'd know what the difference between versions is anyway. Just call them release N.0. Update rollups (like 3.0r5, 3.0r6 and presumably future 3.1r1 &c) could use the second digit. -- Johan KULLSTAM -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
