Indulge me if the previous answer was too dry, I know that you know all the arguments presented in those pages. I have a tooth that is not letting me to sleep. :-\ The idea of the change was to use a more modern, or probably more mainstream, language related with releases. It is easier to talk about alpha, beta and rc than just about a pre-release, a concept that I seldom see outside lyx. Using this language we pass a different message regarding the stabilization of our code base to the outside. > -- > Lgb -- José Abílio
