Yeah, the whole debate is mainly about the decimal point, allowing us to live in the realm of 1-9 range -- which is at least for some of us more comfy :) > Regarding anniversaries they use to happen once a year. :-) :) > So instead of theoretical case let us look concretely in the the next release > changes https://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/NewInLyX24 > > Does this looks like a minor update? The question really is why it should be wrong to give new major version +0.1. Anyway, I do not see that this subthread is moving in a constructive direction, so it's perhaps best to agree that we disagree :) It's not a grave issue to me so if majority decides that we should abandon the current versioning scheme I can live with that. .. I might fight for LyX-year.minor versioning scheme once we hit 9 though :)) Pavel -- lyx-devel mailing list lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-devel
