Hi all,

I found FPC's versioning scheme is neat. It has 3 versioning scheme: stable, fixes, and development. But I found Lazarus only got 2 versioning scheme: stable and development.

So, I think it's good if Lazarus also follows FPC's versioning scheme. Each scheme uses appropriate FPC version. Lazarus stable using FPC stable, Lazarus fixes using FPC fixes, and Lazarus development using FPC development.

So, after this, we'll have:
- Lazarus 9.24.0 using FPC 2.2.0 (stable)
- Lazarus 9.24.1 using FPC 2.2.1 (fixes)
- Lazarus 9.25 using FPC 2.3.1 (development)

One who like to have bleeding-edge features of FPC/Lazarus, can use the development version. One who want to have latest fixes could use fixes version (and still feel secure of new bugs that might come from new features) without having to wait too long for next stable version. And one who doesn't have enough guts could keep using stable version. :-D

Using SVN as tool, I think it relatively easy to be achieved, as FPC had done it that way. What do you think? ;)


Lazarus fixes branch is on its way, starting from 9.0.24. It will just contain bugfixes for 9.0.24 which popped up after the official release.
Just warming up the motors.

I'm in charge of it, but this week I'll be unable to do anything because I'll be abroad, at a customer site.

You see, just ask and you get it! :-)
