Good point. So, I guess, another way to do this — especially if we like the "it's a big batched update" approach rather than having split lifecycles — would be to not call 'em .0 and .1 but keep to the integer version numbers released in June and call the update bundle some arbitrary name like "November Update". Or we could just use .a and .b instead of .0 and .1. Or .j and .n for June and November. -- Matthew Miller <mat...@fedoraproject.org> Fedora Project Leader _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org
