It's ok for an exceptional case, but normally we should follow the established release schema: x.y.0 and than x.y.1 and than either x+1.0.0 or x.y+1.0. It was communicated and is well known by the users, and we should demonstrate reliableness. I don`t like a x.y.5 or higher version for AOO. I love distinction ;-). Kind regards Michael
